Autobiography of Love & Impermanence

Some truths live in the body long before the mind can name them. Some poems arrive only when we’ve learned to truly listen. In her debut collection, Rachael Daugherty offers a tender, breath-born excavation of self. With a poet’s voice, an artist’s eye, and a seeker’s soul, she weaves poems of grief, healing, embodiment, and homecoming. This is a sacred space where softness is strength and every feeling belongs. These poems are for those learning to stay, those who broke open and still chose love, and those finding their way home—word by word, breath by breath.
