The Mouth Forgets, out now.

I started writing these poems when I was young because I didn’t know how else to survive the things I couldn’t say out loud. I kept writing them through every version of myself that followed throughout the years. They started as the quiet artifacts of a girl trying to make sense of the world, and slowly became a record of how innocence shifts, fractures, and refuses to disappear completely.

This book spans a decade of my life. From private teenage journal pages, to poems written just months ago. I never imagined those pages would become something I could hold in my hands. It feels a little like opening a time capsule and a ghost story at the same time.

If you read it, thank you. If you share it, thank you. If you’ve been here while I built this life and this book at the same time, thank you most of all. It means more than I can explain to know these pieces of my girlhood get to exist outside of me now.

I’m equal parts terrified and grateful and in disbelief.

Happy book birthday to my first book. Snag a copy at the link in my bio❤️ by @abigailrwrites

“Hermit,” a poem from my debut book, The Mouth Forgets, has been nominated for the Pushcart Prize !!

I wrote this book never really knowing whether these words would mean anything to anyone beyond myself. I’m a little in awe that they do. So incredibly honored and grateful. What a beautiful thing to happen to a little poem 🤍 by @abigailrwrites

{SCROLL} Turns out writing “I was trafficked” is a lot scarier than writing 500 metaphors about being trafficked. Who knew. Trying to be brave and add my voice to the chorus in the only language I’m any good at. Be nice about it lol. #iamjanedoe by @abigailrwrites
