Between Shores

A soulful collection of poetry for those caught between cultures, identities, and versions of self-offering reflection, resilience, and quiet courage. Have you ever felt caught between two homes... or two selves? Like you're carrying stories no one language can hold-navigating cultures, languages, relationships, and versions of yourself that no longer fit? That in-between space can feel lonely. Unseen. Unspoken. Like you're always translating parts of yourself just to belong. Between Shores is a poetry collection for that space. Written across oceans, motherhood, heartbreak, and healing, Shell Lorenzo captures the quiet resilience of becoming-and the courage it takes to keep choosing yourself. These poems don't offer advice-they offer companionship. This is for the one who's: Been misunderstood in two languagesRaised children while unlearning herselfSilenced her softness just to be heardAnd still-keeps becoming.

Whether you're navigating identity, culture, or learning to listen to your own voice again-Between Shores will meet you there. You are not too much.

You are not alone.

You belong to yourself-and that's enough.
