I'm a hopeless girl because hoping for change and believing in fairy tales didn't change my fate. Doing the ugly thing, the hateful thing, the wicked thing, finally set me free. Damaged, broken, unlovable - these are the lies the hopeless tell themselves because those who promised us a happy ending stole our choice, our voice and sometimes our will to live. But we are more than our trauma. We are truth seekers, cycle breakers, and warriors taking back what was stolen from us: a life worth living. Fairy Tales for Hopeless Girls is a poetry collection about becoming yourself, loving yourself, and rewriting the false stories that have kept you small. Broken into five parts, this book is a path to where hope can thrive.
