"Within the courtroom of my head, I have long pronounced me guilty of not being good enough, the sentence I serve being self-doubt for life. Some days, I plead my innocence to my internal court, but the burden of proof has so far been too heavy." As someone living with chronic heart diseases, I like to believe I know a thing or two about a broken heart- quite literally. As I got older, I've had the *great* pleasure to learn that the physical heart is not the only one capable of being broken. I found myself turning to pen and paper in times of misery, and started writing down my thoughts on love, heartache, grief and all the other difficult emotions that are part of our human experience. This book is a collection of my poetry and short stories about these thoughts on different themes ranging from socio-critical pieces, to experiencing love as an openly queer woman, all the way to my thoughts on broken hearts -both in a physical and emotional sense.

When I was ten, I met someone, in a cold forest, not far outside my town. He told me he was an unicorn, and that he could show me paradise. Looking back he mightve been the snake in my garden eden, slithering out of the bushes and leading me towards temptation, but I was nine and so I believed him. When I was ten, someone told me that paradise, was not something to be found, sitting stiffly in the garden, no matter how pretentiously pretty it was. She gave me wings and told me to fly over the garden wall, to find paradise outside it. I was ten, so I believed her. When I was eleven, someone showed me my blood and made me admire the red of it. A year later, I drowned them in it. Considering everything I was, am and have been (naive, cruel, nothing), I suppose my story went about as great as I could have expected. They gave me an apple and I ate it. They told me it would bring about paradise and I believed them. They left me to die and I did. I just wish I could regret it.
