Synopsis

What happens when the life you survived no longer feels like the life you were meant to live?

What Remembers My Name is a journey through the in-between, the places where desire becomes devotion, heartbreak becomes home, and a woman begins to remember the parts of herself that were never meant to be forgotten.

Through 52 poems of longing, escapism, exhaustion, rage, friendship, spirituality, desire, and reclamation, Natalie Halloway explores what it means to lose yourself slowly in the lives you were taught to endure, and what it costs to finally choose something different.

Blending lived emotion with imagined worlds, composite experiences, and the inner lives of characters, these poems use the first person as a doorway rather than a diary. Love, devotion, grief, and desire move between the real and the imagined, allowing many stories to inhabit the same emotional landscape.

These are poems for the nights spent searching for answers, the mornings you rose anyway, the worlds you disappeared into when reality became too heavy, and every version of yourself that kept becoming even when you could no longer recognize who you were.

Raw, celestial, intimate, and unapologetically honest, What Remembers My Name is not simply a collection about heartbreak.

It is about identity.

About the people we loved but could not save.
The dreams that kept us alive.
The friendships that carried borrowed light.
The anger that finally learned to speak.
The quiet freedom of letting go.
And the pieces of ourselves the world tried, and failed, to bury.

For the dreamers, the lovers, the survivors, and anyone who has ever disappeared into another world just to survive this one.

The cosmos never forgot what you were.
Neither should you.
