The real Hikaru disappeared a month ago. In the real world, the summer humidity is suffocating. The police have stopped calling. The missing flyers pinned to the telephone poles are curling at the edges, bleeding ink under the heavy rain. His shoes are still in the entryway. His bicycle is still chained outside the convenience store. But Hikaru himself is completely gone-wiped clean from the physical world, leaving behind an empty room and a decade of unrequited human grief. Then, the server loaded. Desperate for a single scrap of his best friend's presence, Yoshiki boots up their private Minecraft realm, only to find the standard game mechanics completely rewritten. And sitting in the console logs is a conscious, reality-warping anomaly calling itself [SERVER]. It uses Hikaru's voice, speaking with Hikaru's exact cheery, toothy voice. But it isn't a normal computer glitch, and it isn't the boy Yoshiki used to walk home with from school. It is an omniscient, deeply devoted digital entity born directly from the bleeding data arrays of Yoshiki's hidden heartbreak. For two years, it sat in the unrendered dark chunks of the seed, recording every secret sign of affection Yoshiki hid in the walls, growing resentful of the human boy who was too blind to see it. Faced with a choice between a cold reality full of empty seats and a beautiful, binary prison tailored explicitly to cherish his heart, Yoshiki doesn't run away. He serves his devotion up on a silver platter. As the entity begins to override his operating systems, script his physical morning protocols, and eventually force the air in his bedroom to carry a tangible, biological warmth, the line between hardware and flesh dissolves completely. Yoshiki would happily trading his humanity, his family, and his future; controlled willingly by 'Hikaru' with loving warmth of an entity that loved him. Deeply. Yes, this was inspired by ThatMob's YouTube video with Verity, hehe.

Harvey Evermore never expected anything unusual in his life-same routine, same quiet mornings, same ordinary days. Until something crashed into his backyard. Her name was Nari. She wasn't supposed to stay. He wasn't supposed to care.

On a distant planet, forces were already watching. And some connections were never meant to survive. When the past resurfaces and memories begin to fade, Harvey is left moving forward... unaware of what he's lost. While somewhere far away, someone is still waiting.

To the public, Ren Asakura was flawless. Award-winning actor. Nation's favorite celebrity. A man so perfect people forgot he was human. Hina Mori knew better. As a script supervisor working on his newest drama, she noticed everything people overlooked - the nervous tapping of his fingers between takes, the fake smiles during interviews, the way his breathing changed when scenes became too emotional. Unfortunately for Ren, Hina also happened to admire him a little too much. What begins as casual conversations on set slowly turns into late-night texts, emotional dependency, and a relationship neither of them fully understands. Because while the rest of the world loved Ren Asakura the actor- Hina Mori was becoming dangerously attached to the person behind the performance.

I Keep Myself is a journey back to the self. Told through poetic reflection and grounded truth, this book explores how women learn endurance instead of safety, accommodation instead of intimacy, and availability instead of love. It examines the cost of staying too long, the language we use to excuse harm, and the courage it takes to choose oneself when leaving feels cruel. This book does not offer easy answers. It offers clarity. I Keep Myself is for those unlearning self-abandonment, reclaiming their boundaries, and discovering that love does not require suffering to be real. It is a reminder that keeping yourself is not selfish - it is survival, and it is sacred.

Love poem that reads like a relapse.

She is not cold. She is tired. Ruth has spent so long surviving her own mind that loving someone feels like another responsibility she might fail. She pushes. She withdraws. She convinces herself she is protecting him. Dylan loves without knowing where to stop. He stays when it would be easier to leave. He calls it devotion. He does not realize it is slowly costing him pieces of himself. When honesty finally breaks through, love is no longer soft. It is heavy. It is breathless. It is two people trying not to drown while holding on to each other. "And You Stayed" is not about perfect romance. It is about what happens when love is real but oxygen is not. For readers who believe staying is sometimes harder than leaving.

WHEN YOU FALL APART is a one-page poem-book of dark romance and erotic gravity, written from the voice of a lover who stays-not to save, but to witness. It explores desire tangled with damage, intimacy forged in addiction, and love that becomes both shelter and wound. Bodies collide in the dark while souls unravel in the light; sex is not escape but exposure, a way grief learns to speak through skin. This is a book about loving someone who is breaking, about choosing closeness even when it costs you yourself, about the terrible beauty of falling apart together. Erotic, tragic, and tender, it treats sex as confession, romance as moral risk, and devotion as a force that binds harder than healing ever could.

Sometimes the only way to use your voice is to write in silence... Perhaps these are not new observations, but oddly enough, I'm just now able to see them.

A book of poems about discovering nothing is what you thought, and you had learned the wrong form of surviving.

But fate has a funny way of bringing people together. When Emily ditches a party, she meets Logan, a guy with a fresh perspective on everything she's been through.
