My Heart Speaks: Poetry from the Heart of an Adult Survivor of Abuse (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781535259194)

Enter the heart of an adult survivor of abuse as she battles nameless, faceless dragons and tries to piece together a childhood that's like a jigsaw puzzle. Stand with her as she tries to recognize the stranger in the mirror and feel her hopelessness as she dreams of going home. Meet her sister Claire, an infant victim of abuse, and see why she may have had the kinder choice. Get to know the lost little girl who still lives within her and the obsessive workaholic she has become. Touch the heart of a woman who has tried to be perfect and failed, in spite of her best efforts. Experience first-hand the terrors that only a survivor of childhood abuse will ever know. Share the words that cannot be spoken, the feelings that cannot be expressed and the silence that cannot be broken. If you are an adult survivor of abuse, know that you are not alone; if you are not an adult survivor of abuse, prepare to journey into a strange, dark dimension.
