the Truth About Lies I Told Myself

What happens when the love story you fought for becomes the lie that breaks you?Told through poems, letters, journal entries, and razor¿sharp prose, The Truth About the Lies I Told Myself traces devotion as it turns feral-red flags dressed up as romance, silence mistaken for loyalty, endurance mistaken for love. What begins as tenderness becomes evidence: the small bargains, the swallowed words, the body's alarms explained away.When the fantasy finally breaks, Othello follows the fracture back to its origins-abandonment, predatory attention, the hunger to be chosen-and chooses the holy terror of leaving. In the aftermath, grief is not a lesson but a landscape she must navigate, and truth arrives with a cost.This is heartbreak with teeth. Raw, reflective, and deeply human, it's for anyone who has ever loved someone more than they loved themselves-and is finally ready to come home.
