What happens after the fairytale cracks?
Our arguments built up to one perfect fight, one messed up honeymoon and something that played more like a movie than real life. I survived the night, so what next? ~ love lessons dipped in poetry sessions ~ {step one}

my bedroom wall. was tattooed with…
poems & prayers
filled with scriptures
typed & handwritten notes
on jagged journal pages. I found
peace in those words. & I devoured
them the way a child eats candy
consumed them like air:
beauty for ashes, double
for trouble, fearfully &
wonderfully made.
that wall was
the last thing I
saw between night
tears and morning light.
Tacking my hopes and prayers
up there, I found my voice again
bold & broken. But it was still me

that at some point
every woman has a wake me
moment where she decides what
happens next. In honor of that reality,
wake me poetry exposes & celebrates
those life-changing decisions. Shared in two

Hi, I'm Jamillah Warner… and to this day I play with my alphabet the way the 5-year-old me played with mud ~ wild & curious. And I write, not just for me. But for warriors like me overcoming all kinds of broken things: broken relationships, broken thoughts, broken dreams. And my style is raw, honest, sometimes dramatic & always a unique blend of stories, poetry and prayer. We call it the fire mix.
I know how…
pain can change you
into something you barely recognize any more. But wake me poetry is about how we rise. This isn't your typical poetry book. Instead of microwave poems or something that requires a dictionary to read, these are conversational, lyrical and designed for healing.
It's what I learned right after divorce and domestic violence, and right before hope, or somewhere in the messy middle. It's not perfect. It's life. A reminder that just because you're strong enough to deal with a thing doesn't mean you should have to. So take this moment to embrace your own wake me one deliberate step at a time
~ Jamillah Warner | hotPrayers & Poetry
the way the author gracefully walks you through her journey of pain, trauma, grief, depression, and utter brokenness to self discovery….one of the most beautifully depicted stories of triumph”
