This book is a collection of poems that reflect some of my deepest thoughts and fears. Each poem is a window into some of the most difficult times in my life and how those hardships affect me in my day to day life as a student, a mother, a dreamer, and a struggler. My goal for this collection is to express my "daily contradictions", so to speak. Some poems reflect my overwhelming joy and my view of life as a blessing. Others show the deep pain I can feel while coping with the many roles I play in my life in a brutally honest way. Writing is an outlet for me, so when I feel like the world is crushing me and I am slowly going insane, that pain I feel comes out in my writing. My hope for this book is that my readers will feel seen and understood, knowing that it's okay to fall apart sometimes and that you have the power to pull yourself back up every time.

A collection of works that focus on likening adult experiences to childish memories.
""Ever since I started writing poetry, I've always found myself addressing it to someone or something. Knowing they'd never read it or that they didn't even exist was relieving, in a way, and most if not all of the poems in this book are based on no experience of my own. Regardless, I have always been talking to somebody.Poetry to me has always been about getting your feelings across in a way that doesn't need to be entirely relatable or understood so long as it's heard. A simpler, more personalised way of tackling love and death, which are things people manage to always be talking about and talking around at the same time.I have spent a long time attempting to articulate my feelings in a way that is easy to understand for a neurotypical world. None of these poems will be understood by you reading them exactly the way they were by me writing them. Although uncomfortable for some, that reality is the essence of poetry to me. I've never felt better understood than when writing things knowing that would never be the outcome.You're not expected to understand my thoughts. I do, though, hope you enjoy at least one.""
Let's say you're waiting at the bus stop, or it's time to take a thirty-minute break; you gaze over at another individual, and your mind starts to wander. Based on an individual's mannerisms and outfit choices, you begin to picture their life and imagine what choices they might've made. You slowly observe but never say anything as you are content with the image you've conjured up in your mind. Or maybe you don't like talking to people; your social battery has run out, could be a multitude of reasons. However, my curiosity gets the better of me, and I have to talk to people, so my conversations inspire some of the poems written here with people from different walks of life.

""Saving it for Luego (""""Luego"""" means """"Later"""" in Spanish btw) is a book of very cool poems, not that carefully curated, for a twenty-one-day challenge of writing a poem daily. It's the basics for momentos en el presente, of happiness, stability, self-love, and all the good stuff. It's about me, Tania- a twenty-six-year-old living in Los Ángeles. With silly segments and honorable mentions to Bad Bunny and to my parents. It might be confusing if Spanglish isn't your first language. This book is for ALL baddies out there. Don't ever doubt that self-love and inner happiness always come first. Siempre pa' arriba.""
""Would you believe me if I said that we operated through others' perceptions at one point in our existence? We become disconnected until we find our true identity, and the next thing we know, BOOM, instant cellular connection. Life would be easier if we could stay connected to ourselves all the time, but things happen. S.T.E.M. explores the complex reality of self-actualization, purpose, doubt, depression, stress, anxiety, dreams, generational curses, patience, reconnection, Christianity, and the ability to step out in faith. No matter where we are, we must find that connection again.""
""O Muse, sing of the trials and tribulations of the middle class. Sing of the public transport woes, the instagram addictions, and the wonders of a gin and tonic.

Staying temporarily or living permanently in a foreign country may not always be an easy time. This book includes my few times of wander when studying, working, and traveling abroad.

Lockdown forced me to look inwards at a time when no-one could get out. It was a time full of snacks and home-learning and masks and sporadic shopping trips and careful shopping lists. It was a time of the unknown and shouting and tears and hugs and fears. It was also a time of lego bricks and pyjama days and PE With Joe and rainy walks and hot chocolate. Here are some of my tiny moments.
