A collection of poems woven together to tell the story of a journey from child abuse and self-injury towards healing. Published for abuse survivors, those who self-injure, healing professionals, and anyone interested in understanding, preventing and healing the various forms of child abuse and self-injury.
The author is a writer, artist and activist who hopes that through sharing her art work and healing journey she may contribute to efforts to further understand, prevent and heal from child abuse and its legacy of consequence.
These consequences negatively affect many other aspects of human life on the planet, including environmental, social, and political. The use and misuse of power and responsibility are first learned in early life, and as is too often the case, must be relearned if humanity is to survive at all, and perhaps ultimately, to evolve.
