FEMININITY: Collection of Poems

By Bianca Irene

Can you lose something intangible? And if so, can it be found again?

Femininity is a poetic journey to rediscover true identity and womanhood in the face of fear, trauma, and cultural pressures.

Will you unearth the lost parts of you while reading? I hope so, but if not, at least you'll know you're not alone on your journey.

For my daughter,

Sofia Joy.

For the Reader

I wrote this book from the pit of my stomach,

the brokenness of my spirit,

and the joy of my salvation.

Please do not hold back

in shedding your tears,

crying out to God, and

allowing Him to touch your heart.

My prayer for you is that you would

see Jesus through the broken parts of me

and know that He sees you and loves you

in the depths of your brokenness.
