Trust Me, You're Aloud To Be Here. - Mitchell J Brice

This poetry collection is a tribute to resilience, identity, grief, healing, and the fierce beauty of becoming. With language that is both raw and lyrical, grounded yet soaring, these poems explore what it means to survive the weight of expectation, memory, love, and loss-without losing yourself in the process.

Spanning themes of family, friendship, masculinity, mental health, Black identity, and personal growth, each piece invites the reader to breathe deeper, pause longer, and feel more honestly. From quiet reflections on childhood to gut-punch reckonings with self-worth, the voice here is unflinching, vulnerable, and deeply human.

This is a book for those who laugh through the ache. Who speak truth even when their voice shakes. Who choose to live loudly, tenderly, and unapologetically.

Whether you are in the storm or just stepping out of it, these pages will meet you there-with grace, grit, and a light to carry forward.
