The Road Home to Me

Healing is a journey. From the darkest of nights to the brightest of days, the struggles to the successes, and the pain to the pure bliss. These poems tell the stories of heartbreak and love, abuse and addiction, parenthood, self-worth, and finally, the process of healing. The journey of healing, including the setbacks and relapses, is written in the form of poems. As a survivor of domestic violence herself, the author uses her personal experiences to share her story of loss, hurt, resilience, rebuilding, and success. The poems in The Road Home to Me illustrate a map to healing, showing that no matter how hard things get, someday you will heal. "Life didn't just get better, I chose to heal and make it better"

From the popular image of Gordon (also known as "Whipped Peter") to photographs of the lynching of Jesse Washington to the video of George Floyd's murder, from DNA to holograms to posthumous communicati...
