Of Coming Home

<p>Held within these pages is the story of trusting oneself of finding truth in the discomfort of trauma of putting one's healing above the comfort of others. It is a story that echoes the narratives of so many who stay silent when wading in the waters of assault loss trauma and mental health.</p><p><em>Of Coming Home</em> is representative of the rebirthing of oneself while struggling against the foundation that sought to destroy them. It is a searching and exploring the journey inward and the confusion that it all held. It is a story of setting boundaries around the body and mind about finding the voice and recognizing the healing process as important.</p><p>The poems held in this body of work show a progression from <em>The Years of Breaking</em> in that they are representative of what happens after the breaking is done - the rebuilding begins.</p><p> </p>
