See book blurb below:
‘I’ve spent several years of my life hiding, holding onto secrets from my past that men have tortured me with. My heart longs to be set free from this burden I carry, their demons once rested in my soul.
I wrote these poems to heal from the illness that has taken over my entire body from all the hurt and pain they have caused me. My truest form of expression lives within these pages, I hope that my words can help those who feel alone in what seems like a never ending darkness. Don’t stay buried, let your voice be heard, we are all beautiful women who deserve so much better.’
From The Ashes: Poems From Poisonous Love Affairs is a beautiful, sweet debut. No one deserves the darkness or the despair that lives within these pages. The monsters are now dead, peace is now with you.
