Gilded Cage is a raw and unflinching collection of spoken word poetry that transforms personal darkness into piercing light. This visceral anthology peels back the layers of trauma, survival, and healing with unwavering honesty and fierce grace.
⚠️ Content Warning: This collection contains mature themes including child abuse, suicide, pregnancy loss, and trauma.
Within these pages, pain blooms into power as the poet navigates the complexities of PTSD, abandonment, and the bittersweet journey of motherhood. Each piece resonates with the authenticity of lived experience, offering both a mirror for those who have walked similar paths and a window for those seeking to understand.
From the ashes of heartbreak to the redemptive power of love, Gilded Cage reminds us that even in our darkest moments, there is poetry in survival. This collection speaks to the resilience of the human spirit and the transformative power of giving voice to the unspeakable.
Perfect for readers of Rupi Kaur, Warsan Shire, and Ocean Vuong, this debut collection will leave you breathless, broken open, and ultimately, hopeful. Experience the power of spoken word poetry translated to the page in this brave and unforgettable work.
*In these cages we built ourselves,
even the bars are made of gold-
and sometimes, that's exactly
what makes them harder to leave.*
