Broken Vessels, Golden Light: A Prayer for the Broken is a debut poetry collection for anyone who has ever smiled while aching, survived what they could not name, or tried to earn the kind of love that should have been freely given.
In four movements-The Girl Inside the Woman, The Ways We Break, When the World Hurts, and The Gold - Nyah Seraphine writes from the tender intersection of memory and mercy. These poems revisit girlhood wounds, complicated love, and the quiet grief of being almost chosen. They also rise into something deeper: self-mothering, truth-telling, ancestral strength, and a faith that does not demand perfection to be present.
Here, heartbreak is not romanticized. Survival is not mistaken for intimacy. And healing is not treated like a performance.
This collection is both witness and offering-pages for the person who is tired of shrinking, tired of bargaining, tired of carrying pain as home. It is for the one learning to set boundaries without guilt, to release what harms without hatred, and to return to themselves without apology.
If you are in a season of rebuilding, these poems will meet you there-softly, honestly, and with reverence.
Because a vessel can crack, and still carry light.
