You Still Have Yourself: Poems and Reflections

By Fernando Samalot

A spectacular, tenderhearted poetry debut that is also "a valuable tool on your personal growth journey" (Yung Pueblo, #1 New York Times bestselling author).

"What do you have left after losing everything you know?"

You've been told that it's the cumulative impact of everything you've built: home, relationships, career, health, community.

But the truth is much deeper.

In you still have yourself, debut poet Fernando Samalot shares a contemplative collection of poems and reflections that follows an inner journey through loss, transformation, and return.

As the poet writes,

"The best thing I ever did for my heart
was allow myself
to begin again"

Set within both inner and natural landscapes, the book moves through forests, rain, nightfall, dawn, and shifting light, using nature as a living mirror for impermanence, healing, and renewal.

"Samalot's debut poetry collection paves the way for humanness in a way that we don't see often anymore. He has made triumph romantic and the process of healing? Entirely possible" (Brianna Pastor, author of Good Grief).
