Synopsis

November 10,2022, just eleven days before my 13th birthday, I just had released my first book "What's This Preteen Sh*t ". I was being acknowledged for being 12 years old with a book out in my community and beyond! To someone on the outside  looking in ,my world looked pretty good but  in reality I was  battling  depression. At 12 years old my depression got the better of me and on November 10,2022, I attempted suicide. This is a collection of my poetry during that time and after expressing how I was feeling.
