Petals of the Sunflower, Fall
A modern fairy tale gone wrong.
What happens when the love you thought would last forever... doesn't?
Petals of the Sunflower, Fall is a four-part poetry collection that traces the life cycle of a love story - from blooming innocence to betrayal, heartbreak and ultimately, self-reclamation.
Written over six years, this deeply personal collection captures: -
The softness of first love- The subtle shift when the sun turns away
- The breaking that follows betrayal
- The quiet strength of choosing yourself again
Through 52 intimate poems across 90 pages, this book mirrors the journey of a sunflower - blooming, bending, breaking and finally turning back toward the light.
This collection is for anyone who has:
- Loved someone who couldn't love them back
- Ignored red flags and called it destiny
- Stayed too long- Had to rebuild themselves from emotional ashes
- Needed words for feelings they couldn't explain
Short enough to read in one sitting. Deep enough to stay with you long after.
If you are healing, grieving, growing, or simply remembering who you were before someone broke you - this book will feel like a conversation you didn't know you needed.
It is raw.
It is honest.
It is vulnerable.
And it is proof that heartbreak is not the end of your story.
Because sometimes the love story ends and the becoming begins.
The petals fell.
She still turned toward the light.
