RUPTURES is a collection of poetry about survival, loss, trauma and addiction. After
being diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder and PTSD in 2015, Ellise has lived her life in a constant brink of chaos and euphoria. Her poetry is contemporary, insanity, addiction, escape and trauma. It is a desperate woman’s attempt to claw, carve and sear her mark in a world that has continuously denied and forgotten her. It is also a testament to her identity, one that’s slowly being torn apart by her disease. She hopes that her poetry will find its place in your heart:
“I love you. The misunderstood, the confused, the lost, and the lonely. We are artists through and through, and this world is wonderful because of you.”
-Ellise Ramos
