What happens after the first time we give our heart away -and then have it handed back, broken? This collection explores that very question, tracing the arc from first love to the searing pain of a first friendship breakup. Through twenty-one carefully crafted poems, the author documents a journey of emotional evolution. Each piece is a window into the raw truth of love and betrayal, betrayal and resilience. The poems don't just capture these moments; they connect them, building a single, cohesive narrative of loss, growth, and the fierce determination to keep moving forward. This is a powerful and intimate story for anyone who has ever had to rebuild themselves after a fall.
