🔥 The Flame: A Memoir of Becoming
A raw memoir of survival and testimony
This is not a polished story. It is a reckoning.
A girl born in shadows. A woman stitched together with fire.
Inside are fragments — poems, cries, whispers, and declarations.
They are not in order, but neither is healing.
If you are holding The Flame, you are holding a piece of survival.
Closets and monsters. Stars and scars. A little girl who told her truth,
and a woman who refused to stay silent.
I didn’t vanish. I ignited.
