I Love Me Enough to Let Me Go

I Love Me Enough to Let Me Go is Johanna De Vries' debut collection of poetry. Known for her spoken word poetry, De Vries has carefully selected and arranged the heart of her writing into short, shareable poems that capture the light and dark contrasts of life and speak an instantly recognizable rhythm of heartbreak and healing.



The collection is divided into four sections, "Stranger, Acquaintance, Friend, and Lover," which reflect the poet's own journey back to herself, while simultaneously echoing the reader's journey into the heart of the poet.



De Vries' poetry is sure to resonate with anyone who is trying to navigate the beautiful and the ugly, the light and the dark, the pain and the joy- the journey of life we are all experiencing. Her language is instantly felt and understood, but this accessibility doesn't negate the lingering effects of beautifully crafted language that poetry lovers seek.
