The kid once called alitaptap—firefly—writes with raw honesty about ambition, grief, healing, and hope. This collection holds his once-unspoken feelings and reminds us that even in our most uncertain moments, there is light in expression and power in telling our truth.
His words invite readers to reflect, remember, and rise.
May these poems help you find the courage to write and speak your truth—
even if your light is dim, even if it only flickers.
