In The Poems I Wrote Instead, words become the place where silence ends.
This raw and intimate collection traces the journey of a woman learning to speak after heartbreak, betrayal, and loss. Through poems about young love, grief, healing, and survival, Isabella Chiovitti captures what it means to rebuild yourself after being broken.
Each page unravels the emotions we often bury, from first love to permanent scars, from the weight of trauma to the light that follows it. Unflinchingly honest yet deeply hopeful, these poems remind readers that healing is, at its core, about transforming pain into power.
For everyone and every woman who has loved, lost, and learned to begin again, The Poems I Wrote Instead is a testament to strength, resilience, and the quiet courage of survival.

Perfect for readers of Rupi Kaur, R.H. Sin, and Najwa Zebian.
