I Am Still Here

I Am Still Here: Love, Loss, and the Line I Drew
A Poetry Memoir
By Sara Victoria Lorraine Basra

Some stories are written after healing.

This one was written while finding it.

I Am Still Here is a deeply personal poetry memoir exploring love, loss, survival, healing, faith, and the quiet courage it takes to choose yourself.

Blending powerful poetry with honest reflections, Sara Victoria Lorraine Basra takes readers on a journey through seven stages of healing-from longing and truth to survival, voice, clarity, release, and becoming.

This is more than a collection of poems.

It is an invitation into the difficult space where love and pain can exist together, where survival becomes the beginning of transformation, and where finding your own voice is the bravest act of all.

Written with vulnerability, compassion, and lived experience, this book speaks to anyone who has ever loved deeply, questioned their worth, stayed longer than they should have, or wondered whether life could begin again.

Inside these pages you will discover a journey through:

• Love and longing
• Truth and difficult choices
• Finding your voice
• Healing after heartbreak
• Letting go without losing compassion
• Reclaiming your identity
• Becoming who you were always meant to be
