MEGAN Fox claims she wrote her new book of dark poems about sex, abuse, rape, and murder after a mystery “self-absorbed idiot” broke her heart, The U.S. Sun can reveal.
The Jennifer’s Body star’s first collection of disturbing verses in her book titled Pretty Boys are Poisonous is out on Tuesday.
Brunette beauty Megan, 37, writes in the prologue that she has always believed that she is a “sacrificial lamb” for whichever “beautiful, broken, self-absorbed idiot” is hunting her down.
Describing herself as a “hopelessly romantic open wound of a human,” she adds: “But then one day it happened. One of said idiots finally broke me.”
Megan explains it was then that the poems featuring feelings of “isolation, torment, self-harm, desperation, longing, restlessness, rage, and general anguish” poured out of her.

The book - which features more than 70 poems and erotically-charged illustrations by Japanese illustrator Audrey Kawasaki - is not for the fainthearted.
It includes poems titled “rape," “funerals are for lovers,” “why i wish i was gay,” and “to marry an arsonist.”
In one poem titled “it’s giving patrick bateman” - a reference to the serial killer protagonist of American Psycho - Megan writes: “Your love leaves bloodstains on my bedsheets.”
In another, she describes being killed by a 32-year-old narcissist. Her fiancé Machine Gun Kelly turned 33 in April.
In yet another poem, she imagines a werewolf’s attempts to apologize for devouring her, blaming it on “family curses and sexual abuse.”
Megan’s reference to her heart being broken by a “self-absorbed idiot” will prompt speculation on who she is referring to.
The actress began dating her ex-husband Brian Austin Green in 2004, when she was 18 and he was 30, after they met on the set of the movie Hope & Faith.
During their marriage, she claimed that she had only ever been intimate with her "childhood sweetheart” and Brian.
Megan and Brian - who share three sons - split in August 2015 only to get back together.
The former couple finalized their divorce in 2021 after Megan and rapper Machine Gun Kelly had gone public with their ongoing romance.

Megan and MGK got engaged in January 2022 but earlier this year they were rocked by cheating and separation rumors.
Megan hit back at the claims, writing: "There has been no third-party interference in this relationship of any kind.
“That includes, but is not limited to...actual humans, DMs, AI bots, or succubus demons.
"While I do hate to rob you of running random baseless news stories that would have been much more accurately written by ChatGPT, you need to let this story die and leave all of these innocent people alone now.”
In February, the couple were pictured leaving a marriage counselor’s office amid reports of “trust issues” in their relationship.
Megan also famously claimed that her Transformers director Michael Bay was a “nightmare” to work with.
Megan was fired from the third installment of the franchise after saying of Bay: “He’s like Napoleon and he wants to create this insane, infamous madman reputation.
“He wants to be like Hitler on his sets, and he is. So he’s a nightmare to work with.”
Meanwhile, Bay hit back in 2011, saying: “She was in a different world, on her BlackBerry. You gotta stay focused.”
Megan later denied claims that she had washed Bay’s Ferrari naked as part of an audition.
The pair managed to set aside their differences and worked together on his 2014 reboot of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
Speaking about her book of poems, Megan told People magazine, which has published an excerpt of the book, that she took inspiration from both her real life and her imagination.
“It comes from a lot of places," she said.
“Some of it is literal, while other parts are allegorical. Some poems contain a Grimm’s-fairy-tale-type element, and others serve the same purpose as memes in online culture.
“All of it is something women can relate to.”
In the promotional blurb for the book, Megan adds: “These poems were written in an attempt to excise the illness that had taken root in me because of my silence.
“I’ve spent my entire life keeping the secrets of men, my body aches from carrying the weight of their sins.
“My freedom lives in these pages, and I hope that my words can inspire others to take back their happiness and their identity by using their voice to illuminate what’s been buried, but not forgotten, in the darkness.”
