Ruined

Sad musings, violent contemplations, and painful rhymes fill the pages of this unapologetically raw debut poetry collection. Inspired by the poet's most traumatic experiences, each poem offers an unfiltered glimpse into a mind shaped by loss, anger, and survival.

These pages reflect the poets desperate search for peace in the aftermath of chaos. Beautiful words with no minimising, no softened edges; only truth, pain, and the haunting echoes of a life lived in the shadow of trauma.

A poignant, powerful, and uncensored retrospective that invites readers to witness the healing found not in silence, but in the storm.

*This collection is strictly 18+ as it contains a wide range of triggers, including references to various kinds of abuse, as well as some explicit language.
