The Weight I Carried

By Selena Vera

In these pages lives a girl learning to breathe again.
This collection gathers the poems she wrote in the quiet corners of her life, the late night battles, the soft mornings, the tiny victories she almost didn't notice .Each piece is fragment lifted from the slow rebuilding of her spirit, shaped by every lesson she carried and every wound she refused to define her.
What you will find here is not perfection.It is growth .
it is the voice of someone who walked through storms and returned with her hands full of light, someone who learned to name her hurt without becoming it.These poems follow the journey of a heart teaching itself how to trust again, love again, and rise again even when the rising felt impossible .

This is a book for anyone who has ever felt too heavy, too quiet, too misunderstood .For anyone who stayed up all night whispering their pain into the ceiling, for anyone who is trying to heal in a world that moves too quickly to notice .

Every verse is a small lantern.
Every story is a breadcrumb on the path back to yourself.And somewhere between the lines you may hear your own breath steadying, a reminder that healing rarely arrives all at once but blooms in gentle moments in between .
