In your twenties, everything feels like it could last forever-until it doesn't. Confessions of a Love-Struck Waitress is a collection of poetry written on the backs of used guest checks during long waitress shifts. What began as scribbles on receipt scraps became an evolving record of love, loss, memory, creativity, and ambition. The people who pass through you, the words you don't say, and the questions that remain unanswered. The deep romances and even deeper devastations that rearrange a person's internal alchemy. The subtle melancholy of watching strangers live their lives while quietly questioning your own, and the hunger for something more fulfilling than your current situation.
It wasn't written all at once, but in fragments over the course of several years.
Musings and observations that might have been discarded without the courage
to preserve what others will tell you to move on from. For anyone navigating early adulthood, healing from heartbreak, or standing on the edge of a dream
that feels too sharp to touch, these pages are for you.
Some loves don't last. Words do.
