Debut Poetry Collection

This is Joy-Jayne’s debut poetry collection. Rooted in observation and quiet intensity, the poems reflect on identity, change, and the tension between holding on and letting go. Sometimes the poem is a conversation she never got to have. Sometimes it’s just her listening. Nature appears often—not as decoration, but as part of how she moves through the world, how she slows down and pays attention.
