In Here, I Mend - Janine Canono

This book is a reminder that self-love is more than just taking care of one's self. But mostly, it is about learning how to sit with your fears, to sit with your thoughts, and ruthlessly accept yourself in all its glory and days of brokenness. It is about loving and giving to yourself first, before sharing yourself with the world without leaving your cup empty.

Janine Canono is a writer and poet based in the Philippines. She self-published her very first poetry and prose book entitled In Here, Always in 2021, which is about the beautiful transitions of human emotions in between love, happiness, pain, growth, and healing. She has always been passionate about writing and poetry, which ultimately inspired her to pursue her dream of publishing a book.

They say, time heals.

But over time, I am slowly learning that allowing the pain to just simply be,
is already not giving it the power to conquer the remaining strength within me.

By allowing it to exist, I am learning to find comfort in the dark,
to find comfort in the waiting, and not having to rush time until it finally mends me.
Learning how to make friends with the dark, until I'm ready to set it free.

Making Friends with The Dark
