This collection of poems and lyrical reflections follows the journey of a young, bicultural speaker as she navigates the complexities of family, the tenderness of first love, and the evolving landscape of identity. Through lived experience and the transformative act of writing, she confronts inherited expectations, uncovers personal truths, and reinvents herself- crafting an identity that feels wholly and authentically her own.
