Her Very Words by Bukkie Allison

Testimony. Memory. The language women use when no one interrupts.
Her Very Words is a quiet archive of things women have said when they felt safe enough to speak without interruption.
Across conversations, reflections, and fragments of lived experience, these pages gather the language women use when they are no longer explaining themselves — when they are simply remembering, confessing, wondering, and naming their truths.
Some stories arrive gently. Others carry the weight of years of silence.
In witnessing these voices, the book becomes something more than storytelling. It becomes testimony — a space where ordinary moments of womanhood are preserved with tenderness, honesty, and care.
Not everything here is resolved.
But everything here is real.

Description
Some women whisper.
Some endure.
Some survive.
And some finally speak.
Her Very Words is a deeply intimate collection of poems and reflections that give voice to the woman who has loved, lost, questioned, endured—and risen.
Across 92 powerful pages, Bukkie Allison explores love in its tenderness and its tension, the quiet negotiations of relationships, the ache of heartbreak, the courage of self-reclamation, and the beauty of emotional truth. Each poem reads like a confession. Each page feels like recognition.
This is not just a poetry collection.
It is a mirror.
It is a witness.
It is a remembering.
For the woman who stayed too long.
For the woman who left.
For the woman still trying to understand her own heart.
If you have ever swallowed your pride, silenced your voice, or wrestled with love’s contradictions—these words are for you.
