It Was Complicated
Tin Heartless Girl is an emotional collection of poetry about the complexities of a broken family relationship. This is a very personal story for you. How hard was it to put this story out in the world for people to read?
It was complicated. This is a book with a lot of deep thoughts and broken pieces from the past. But my goal was to let people know that we can have intense feelings and still rise from the situation that causes it. In the end, once you heal, you can talk about it, and that’s the main reason why the book is out for people to read.
What were some themes that were important for you to explore in this book?
I was focusing on the deep feelings that are not nice to speak about. I wanted to write without filters. Sadness and resentment was the winner in this book if I’m being honest.
What were some goals you set for yourself as a writer in this book?
I usually think about what my loved ones are gonna think, or the people that read it are gonna think about it. But in this one, all that was gone in some way. I wanted to be raw with the instant feelings about different situations.
Will there be a follow-up collection to this book? If so, when can readers expect it to be out?
For now, no. I love to write poems, but I want to change a bit of the theme. But more in the future.

I wish I felt less sometimes because this poetry book could be better. Talks about the most profound thoughts when things or people don’t want me there anymore. Comes from a bottomless hole persistent in my heart.
This is not my description of everything in life, just of specific people I love. I describe it more as an instance of a particular moment recorded in a poem.
Today things are different, and I heal most of every day. I decided to publish this side of me because, like life, these feelings aren’t forever. Blessings to all, and thank you for your support.
If you are feeling precisely like some of these poems, remember these lessons:
“Everything has a solution.
Nobody should make you feel less. NOBODY.
Love yourself every day. Because when you love someone, you look for the best for them. Do the same with YOU.”
Tin Heartless Girl
Tin Heartless Girl by Lebi P. Nieves Moran is a poignant poetry book that delves into the complexities of a broken family relationship. The collection consists of short poems in various styles, from free-form to acrostic, each conveying the emotional distance and hurt that permeates the relationship. The book’s introduction encourages readers to embrace self-love, a message that resonates throughout the poems.
Although the poems are brief and seemingly simple, they are packed with meaning and depth. Many of them, such as the titular Tin Heartless Girl, employ a nursery rhyme or fairytale-like rhyme scheme, adding an intriguing contrast between innocence and adulthood. The protagonist reflects on their past relationship with their loved ones, revealing the inner turmoil that it has caused. The author reimagines classic tales, emphasizing the message of healing instead of chasing an unattainable happy ending. The book’s imagery is equally stunning, bursting with vibrant mosaic colors. The poems are complemented by a series of powerful images featuring bodies distorted by trees, interlocked with technology, and abstract faces in stained glass. Several poems stand out, including Can I say you don’t Care, which explores the hurt caused by absence, a complex and difficult trauma to write about. That I’m a lost key centered around overwhelming emotions and anxieties that can feel suffocating. And Tin Heartless Girl reveals the heartless girl in the poems is only behaving in ways learned from abusive parental figures, creating a void that can follow a child into adulthood.
Tin Heartless Girl concludes with a beautiful passage on healing, offering comfort to readers on their own personal journeys. Despite the poems’ brevity, they convey a deep sense of emotion and raw honesty that will resonate with anyone who has experienced a broken family relationship. I highly recommend this short book of poems that will take you on an emotional journey.
