Before I learned how to leave,
I learned how to stay quiet.
The Letters I Burned is a collection of poems about the weight children inherit, the homes that shape them, and the versions of ourselves that survive long enough to tell the story. Written with unflinching honesty, these poems move through grief, abandonment, longing, rage, and love-not to offer easy answers, but to bear witness to what was lived.
Some letters are never meant to be sent.
Some are only meant to be survived.
