This book is a collection of poems written over several years. It's the experience of a young woman growing up. It's about girlhood, joy, love and mainly about all kinds of heartbreaks life can cause. As I learned English, I realized that it's easier for me to express myself in that language. Since then, I have been writing poems- they usually start with just one sentence or even just one word. Sometimes they get lost, but I then always find scribbled paper all over my apartment. I just knew I must put those pieces together and that started my passion for lyrical writing. That and my greatest inspiration and lyrical genius Taylor Swift. She changed my approach to language and words drastically. A depressing, joyful, lyrical ride. That is what this book is. Hoping it will find readers captivated, related, and connected to life.

"Aurelius was a good Christian. That's what his parents thought, at least. And his congregation, to whom he preached every Sunday. No one knew of his demons. The secret he had carried with him since his youth, undetected by everyone but himself. Every night he stood before the altar of his church, made from centuries-old stone, and stared through the stained-glass windows toward the sky. Every night he prayed that God would take away his curse, and that his true self would never be discovered by anyone." Aurelius was a priest in a small Bavarian village. Always with an open ear for his congregation and his life in order - at least, until on a stormy evening a young man with beautiful eyes and a contagious smile found his way into his church and threatened to plunge that order into chaos.
