In I Didn't Vanish, Ja'Shaun Coley turns silence into sound and survival into art. This raw, unflinching collection of spoken word poetry traces the invisible battles of mental health, body image, and identity with the urgency of someone who refuses to be erased. Each poem is a pulse, sometimes whispered, sometimes shouted, chronicling the quiet ache of skipped meals, the weight of being seen but not understood, and the scribbled path toward healing.
From "The Disappearing Act" to "This Is Not a Goodbye, It's a Reintroduction, " Coley remixes pain into protest, vulnerability into visibility. This isn't just poetry - it's testimony. A rulebook rewritten. A mirror cracked open. A voice that didn't vanish.
