Opis

This book is a collection of poetry, prose, and short stories inspired by the challenges and victories in the life of a survivor of child sexual abuse. What happened was not your fault and it did not change your value as a human - as a woman. You cannot change the past but you can change the future by separating yourself from the past. Try it through writing - start now with the first page. Promise yourself that you will not let him ruin one more day of your life - he has taken enough. Sadly, I know there are countless people out there who had fathers that sexually abused his children (boys and girls) and who, sickly and selfishly, called it love. Reading your poetry could have an incredible effect on those who have suffered such terrifying experiences. They would be touched and relieved to know they are not alone. As sad and dark as some of your poems are, they also reveal incredible strength, courage, and self-preservation. It could give many people, who are barely hanging on, a glimpse of hope and inspiration. And opening your heart to others could be healing for you as well. Remember - it's you- your strength - your persistence and drive to keep going; it's you who chooses life because deep inside you know there could be wonders around the next corner. It's time to reclaim your health - your life - your soul - your future.
