Survivor's Liturgy is a collection of poems that traces the anatomy of endurance, exploring what it means to live after ruin and rebuild when silence has already named you.
Told in five parts, it moves through violence, aftermath, survival, and the slow, imperfect act of healing. Each poem is a reckoning with memory, with the body, and with the inheritance of grief. It is a book for those who have learned to function through pain and are still trying to call that survival something holy.
The language is deliberate, reverent, and raw. There are no easy resolutions here, only the quiet recognition that mercy is not forgiveness, but continuation.
For anyone who has lived through what they cannot explain, Survivor's Liturgy offers what prayer sometimes cannot: witness, endurance, and the sacred permission to begin again.
