I wasn’t planning to write today. Honestly, I thought I’d take the night off.

But then I came across another writer’s poem where every line began with “I almost,” and something in me screamed a little.

The words started pouring out before I could even think twice about them.

This piece is nonfiction. (Up until the paywall)

Every line is pulled from some version of my real life, the messy parts, the painful parts, the moments I barely made it through, and the woman I became because I did.

Once I started writing, I couldn’t stop.

So welcome to this week’s Teezy Tastes. A little raw and vulnerable. And maybe the truest thing I’ve written in a minute.

I almost gave up before dawn.
I almost stayed where I didn’t belong.

I almost wore pain like a second skin.
I almost let the dark cave in.

I almost loved with an empty cup.
I almost broke and never got up.

I almost silenced my own wildfire.
I almost buried every desire.

I almost believed I was too much.
I almost forgot the power of touch.

I almost let grief rewrite my name.
I almost turned cold from all the blame.

I almost disappeared in survival mode.
I almost collapsed beneath the load.

I almost stopped reaching for the light.
I almost surrendered every fight.

I almost didn’t become where I stayed.
I almost don’t define the woman I became.

If you’ve been enjoying the tension, the teasing, the vulnerability, the chemistry, and the stories that make your pulse skip a little... then you’re going to love what waits behind the paid wall.

My erotic fiction dives deeper. Messier emotions. Stronger desire. Forbidden tension. Slow burns that ache in all the right ways. The kind of stories that keep you reading long past bedtime with one hand over your mouth and the other clutching your chest.

Paid subscribers get access to my exclusive spicy fiction, uncensored thoughts, late-night posts, and the stories I’m just a little too bold to leave public.

So if you’re ready to step deeper into my world... come closer.
I saved the hottest parts for my paid readers.
