Recovery Through Poetry

Recovery Through Poetry is written by a survivor for survivors of trauma and child abuse. The painful reality of abuse and its many forms are laid out in a series of deeply personal poems before the author then describes the people and places that have helped with the continual healing process. It concludes with an exploration of the lessons learnt in life after gaining freedom from such abuse. At times confronting, these poems highlight the incredible strength in all survivors' ability to overcome the trauma of their past and to find the beauty in a life that is worth living.
