Deeply Rooted: A Young Poet’s Testimony

“Deeply Rooted” is a coming-of-age confession–restless, reflective, and ultimately rooted in grace. Through poetry and short stories, this collection traces the journey of growing up black and becoming whole: the quiet ache of childhood grief, the thrill and chaos of teenagerhood, and the gentle, powerful pull of God through it all. These pages speak softly of loss, boldly of identity, and deeply of the faith that begins as a whisper and grows into a foundation. Deeply Rooted will make you laugh, reflect, and perhaps recognize your own story–a story of becoming, surrender, and spiritual renewal.
