Born in Toronto and shaped by the sea, Jay Bramburger spent 33 years in the Royal Canadian Navy. He sailed across oceans while weathering storms of a different kind within. After surviving a near-fatal childhood accident and going through decades of personal loss, trauma, and invisible battles, Jay turned to poetry. He never considered himself a writer but a man searching for light in the dark through emotional healing poems and trauma recovery poetry.
You’re Not Alone is an inspirational poetry book. It is a deeply personal collection of poems based on pain, resistance, strength, and quiet hope. He writes poetry for people who feel alone and hurt in silence. His poetic masterpiece gives a strong message that even in our darkest moments, we are not alone. He writes to reach others who are feeling that grief as he knows that healing starts when someone finally says, “I see you.” And he means it.
“I am not afraid of storms, for I am learning how to sail my ship.”
Louisa May Alcott

Jay’s poetry found me on a day I almost gave up. I have never read something that felt so much like my own thoughts. It was like being seen for the first time in years.
I bought You’re Not Alone for my teenage son, who has been struggling silently. We read it together. It gave us the words we did not know we needed!
This book reminded me that I was not broken beyond repair. Every verse felt like a quiet hug on a hard day. I can really feel myself healing.
Raw, gut-punching, and weirdly comforting. Jay does not sugarcoat anything, and maybe that is why it works. You feel every word.
