The Phoenix Must Burn

The fire doesn’t just destroy; it clears the path.

For years, the embers of childhood trauma smouldered beneath the surface, a quiet heat that defined the boundaries of life. But to truly rise, the old structures must be surrendered to the flame.

In this debut collection, The Phoenix Must Burn traces the delicate, difficult map of healing. Through the visceral work of therapy and the quiet moments of self-reclamation, these poems offer a hand to anyone still standing in the smoke. This is more than a story of survival – it is a transformation.

The burn is over. The flight has begun.
