One year ago today I released my poetry book βChrysalisβ and Iβm at peace knowing not a single page stings anymore. I wrote this during the darkest days of my life to help myself navigate the night. I hope it finds whoever needs it and helps them feel seen and loved. This book was my greatest accomplishment and I am so proud to be its mother. Every version of me who suffered and survived for my art deserves this closure. The inferno in my chest did not swallow me. I befriended it. I have nothing but gratitude. Thanks for reading.
