this is not a love story is a dark poetry collection about a romance that looks like a fairy tale-until the truth shows its teeth.
Through the recurring figures of a Viking and a Witch, this collection explores obsession, power, and emotional survival. What begins as myth and magic slowly unravels into something far more real: a love shaped by manipulation, trauma, and longing that refuses to disappear quietly.
These poems live in the space where passion and pain collide-where devotion becomes dangerous, and where reclaiming the self is an act of defiance.
Themes include:
feminist rage and emotional autonomy
heartbreak and recovery
surviving narcissistic abuse
CPTSD, trauma bonds, and dissociation
witches, myth, and dark feminine power
This book is for readers who have mistaken intensity for love, who have survived relationships that nearly erased them, and who are learning to rewrite the story on their own terms.
This is not a love story.
It's what comes after.
