Overview

Mother May I Never is a collection of poems about growing up without a mother and spending a lifetime learning how to live with that absence. These poems come from the child who kept waiting, the woman who had to raise herself, and the mother who still feels the old wound every time she tries to give her children what she never had. I write about the kind of loneliness that starts early and never really leaves, the way abandonment shapes your voice, your choices, your sense of safety. These poems are plainspoken and honest, rooted in the everyday moments where the loss shows up in the mirror, in the kitchen, in the way you love, in the way you fear being loved. Mother May I Never is for anyone who has carried mother hunger, childhood trauma, or the lifelong ache of wanting someone who was never there. It's for the daughters who grew up too fast, the women who learned to mother themselves, and the ones still trying to break the cycle. This book speaks to readers searching for poetry about mother loss, abandonment, mother wounds, healing, generational trauma, and the quiet work of rebuilding yourself from the inside out. These poems don't offer easy answers just the truth of what it costs to grow up without the person you needed most.
