The words in this book were crafted and composed by a girl who knows what it means to be brokenhearted, and slowly, is learning how to be loved. I wrote this in the hopes that you might come to find you are not alone in your struggle but rather that someone else has seen what the grass looks like on the other side and is here to tell you, if it's green, it's fake. And one thing to know, even in the middle of your heartache, is how powerful you are to be able to feel things in a world that would prefer you to stay numb. You are not any less of a fighter just because you have been wounded by war. In fact, damaged people are the most dangerous opponents if for no other reason than because they've learned how to survive. Keep feeling. C. M.

We?re all a little broken. But the scratches and bumps that are left behind from battle, they?re not the same for each of us. We all wear our scars a little differently. I just happen to wear mine out in the open, right here in black and white. I hope you find solace in knowing that someone else has stood on the ground you have once stood or are currently standing on. We have much in common, you?ll see. The fires that once burned brightly within us are now reduced to embers and ash and as we sit here trying to rekindle the flame of who we used to be, we have the chance to come together. Share in our sufferings, in our lessons learned, and in our pain. Gather ?round and listen close. This one's for the broken. -C. M.
