IF IM NOT YOURS

If I’m Not Your First

by Jefah M. Danford

In the quiet corners of heartbreak, healing, and memory these poems whisper what words often cannot.

From the depths of heartbreak to the slow return of healing, Jefah M. Danford captures the raw, unfiltered truth of what it means to feel deeply and live honestly. If I’m Not Your First is a collection of poems born from love, loss, grief, and the fragile beauty of becoming whole again.

Each page is a conversation with the soul ; tender, painful, and profoundly human. Through themes of self-discovery, resilience, betrayal, and hope, Jefah’s words remind readers that healing is not perfection; it’s survival with grace.

“Even in silence, there is poetry. Even in pain, there is proof that we were here.”

Whether you’ve loved and lost, or you’re still learning to forgive your own heart, If I’m Not Your First will meet you where you are ,and leave you softer, braver, and seen.
