Heart First Even If My Hands Shake is a collection of 21 poems that explore the beautiful chaos of being human. From self-doubt and unsaid feelings to burnt rice overthinking compliments and quiet acts of courage this debut captures what it means to keep going—even when nothing feels certain.Written with wit warmth and just enough unravelling these poems remind us that bravery doesn’t always roar—sometimes it sighs spirals or stirs tea.This isn’t a guide to perfection. It’s a soft place to land one shaky line at a time.
