Between the Tears and the Tongue

"Between the Tears and the Tongue" is a collection of poems about all the things we feel but don't always say. It dives into unrequited love, existential dread, and the idea that maybe soulmates exist-but not always in the way we hope. It's about red string connections that stretch too thin, the weight of imposter syndrome, and the kind of sadness that lingers even when everything looks fine on the surface. Some poems revisit childhood dreams, the ones that felt so big and bright, only to twist into adult fears we can't shake. These poems are for anyone who's ever questioned their place in the world, held on to something that was never really theirs, or wondered if fate is just another word for wishful thinking.
