Book Title Call Me All of Me Evidence of a Life

Call Me All of Me is a powerful collection of poetry that explores the full range of the human experience-from love, beauty, and connection to the darker truths many people would rather ignore. With raw honesty and emotional depth, Ellen M. Martin writes about relationships, loss, resilience, loyalty, betrayal, and the complicated workings of the human mind. Some poems speak to love and hope. Others step into the shadows of trauma, abuse, grief, and survival.
Together they form a body of work that refuses to look away from the realities that shape a life. These poems move through the quiet battles people fight within themselves and the moments that leave lasting marks on the heart and mind. They explore identity, strength, and the courage it takes to face life without disguise. Some readers may see themselves reflected in these pages. Others may feel challenged by the truths they encounter.
But these poems were never meant to be comfortable. They were meant to be honest. Call Me All of Me is not a performance of perfection. It is the record of a life lived openly-its beauty, its darkness, its love, and its scars. It is evidence of a life
