Publisher's Synopsis
Tethered & Torn is a single, continuous story told in freestyle narrative poetry.
It follows one woman's descent into a relationship built on control, subtle erasure, and emotional coercion-and her quiet, often painful journey back to herself. The poems move through longing, confusion, and awakening, without sensationalism or blame, only the raw truth of what it means to want love so badly you forget who you are.
This book doesn't offer a tidy arc or moral. It speaks in fragments, in moments, in memory.
For those who've lived it.
For those trying to understand.
For anyone willing to sit with the discomfort of what control can look like when it's wearing the face of love.
