This is a house you move through slowly.
Each room holds something different.
This collection of poetry is told through four spaces, each one marking a chapter of growing up:
childhood that lingers too long,
silence that learned how to burn,
pain that settled in like it belonged,
and the quiet, uneven work of becoming something new.
Some things don’t stay in the past.
They live in the walls.
And if your walls could talk,
what would they say about you?
