Her; Truth

Her;Truth is a raw and luminous poetry collection by Celine Garcelle, a Black trans feminine voice whose work rises from the intersections of identity, pain, and resilience. These poems move like memory—through laughter, trauma, reclamation, and rebirth. Each piece in Her;Truth speaks from the marrow of experience: the body as protest, the voice as sanctuary, the self as both wound and wonder. In twenty poems, Garcelle chronicles what it means to survive the world’s gaze and still find beauty in being. Her;Truth is not a tragedy—it is testimony. A love letter to Black womanhood, queerness, and every trans girl who learned to live louder than her scars. “I am not your sorrow,” Garcelle writes, “I am your sunrise.”
