Praying for a Lemon Cake: A Poetry Collection (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798279282272)

"I used to pray for you to love me back,
Now I pray for a lemon cake."

Praying for a Lemon Cake is a collection of poems about what happens when you stop asking God for the love that broke you and start asking for something sweeter, simpler, enough.

These poems trace a journey from spiritual crisis to quiet healing-from praying on a Turkish teal mat for a man who would never look your way, to learning that lemon cake is blessing enough. Through heartbreak, chronic pain, and the particular loneliness of unanswered prayers, these verses ask: What do we deserve to want? How small can our wishes become before they feel like surrender? And when does surrender start to feel like grace?

For anyone who has ever loved the wrong person, lost their faith and found it again differently, or learned that healing doesn't always look like getting what you asked for. Last, for anyone who doubts God's existence in your loss.
