Poems Not Meant to Be Read

By Zosha Durano

Split into two powerful sections, Poems Not Meant to be Read traces a deeply personal journey from struggle to self-acceptance.

Part I: "Depression's Diary" explores the heavy realities of coming out, self-harm, eating disorders, depression, and the loneliness of never feeling "enough" - especially while navigating a biracial and bisexual identity. These poems speak openly about pain, shame, and the desire to belong.

Part II: "The Anonymous Autobiography" turns toward hope. Through themes of self-love, healing relationships, cultural pride, and queer joy, this section celebrates the slow and courageous process of rebuilding. Here, flaws become beauty, softness becomes strength, and identity becomes something to embrace rather than fear.

Honest, vulnerable, and ultimately uplifting, this collection is for anyone who has ever struggled with who they are - and for anyone learning to love themselves back into the world.
