Broken Portraits is a raw and intimate collection of poems by Kaysang, giving voice to the quiet ache of exile, identity, and belonging. In spare yet powerful language, these poems explore what it means to grow up between names, places, and histories—caught between memory and displacement.
Through deeply personal reflections, Kaysang captures the emotional weight of refugee life and the struggle to hold onto selfhood in unfamiliar spaces. Each poem feels like a fragment of a mirror—broken yet honest—revealing both vulnerability and resilience.
As the poet writes:
“i still prefer to
swallow three quarters of my name —
if it means i am
a face in a sea of names…”
Small in size but heavy with feeling, this collection speaks to anyone who has ever felt unseen, uprooted, or searching for home.
