"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.
Autorenporträt
The young artist, who is pursuing a Bachelor's Degree in Arts and Social Sciences, considers herself a passionate advocate for social justice. The idea of this book came to her after realising how little the people around her knew of her internal struggles. Knowing she was likely not the only one hesitant to talk about her problems, she wanted to do her part to create a world where vulnerability isn't considered a bad thing. The title was heavily inspired by the duality of a broken heart. After having been hospitalised due to Covid, she was later diagnosed with cardiovascular conditions. This book gives the reader a glimpse into her most intimate thoughts about the struggles and successes of her life. Her courageous debut as a published author follows after years of experimenting with different styles of both poetry and short stories to find her voice in the literary world.
