This first book of poems, in a two book series, is designed to help you find the words. I have used poetry to lend a voice to my experiences of abuse, rape, depression, anxiety, suicidal thoughts, chronic pain and feelings of worthlessness. I believe that some poem, line or word in my writing will touch you, that it will inspire you to say “I have felt that too”. When you do, please take my words and use them to share your pain, your story or your feelings with someone.
