The Day I Didn't Die

These poems are quiet acts of survival-whispers from childhood corners, echoes of heavy footsteps taken too early, and the ache of growing up before you're ready. In verses that trace scraped knees, unspoken fears, and the soft rebellion of being seen, this collection tells the story of learning to live in your own skin. These are poems for anyone who's ever hidden, who's ever been told to grow up too soon, who's still searching for the version of themselves they lost along the way.
Each piece is a doorway back-to the playground, the bedroom, the memory-and forward, toward healing that isn't loud, but lasting. This is what it looks like to unlearn fear, to reclaim softness, and to slowly, bravely, become whole.
