This collection moves through the quiet wreckage of growing up, loving, losing, and trying to survive yourself in the aftermath of it all. These poems sit in the spaces people don’t always see—where childhood leaves its marks long after it ends, where relationships reshape identity, and where silence often says more than words ever could. Across these pages are moments of becoming and learning to exist inside a body that feels unfamiliar, carrying grief for versions of yourself that never got to stay, and tracing the fragile line between holding on and letting go. It is about the weight of what is unspoken, the ache of what was never given, and the slow, uncertain work of healing when nothing about it feels linear. Raw, intimate, and unflinching, this is a collection for anyone who has ever felt too much, not enough, or somewhere in between—and kept going anyway.
