Overview
This book is a response to great misfortune. Here, you will not read about hope, a journey, or how to find yourself, as this collection holds poems on trauma, healing, love, death, and the unspeakable. This book creates a space that is lacking in our world for people to know that all feelings are valid, to feel them instead of fixing them, and to find understanding through another's most hopeless moments. These poems are a place to put everything back together - an organization of the mind's mess.

Reviews
Two minds, one body. This book brings a new and refreshing perspective on one's journey through life's challenges. - Keum, 25, Washington I think this is a great book for those who love poetry and, also, for anyone who has experienced grief, or loss, or who is working through pain. - Noelle, 49, Ohio I love it. I think it captures the emotions that a lot of people feel but aren't sure how to express. It really made me look at my own life from new and different perspectives. - Matt, 20, Texas Reading the book. Again. Never too many times. A work of art. - Betty, 85, Texas The minute I picked it up, I could not put it down. I read every word. -Mary, 65, Arizona Powerful -Kathy, 77, California This book is a beautiful and gut-wrenching exploration of the effects of trauma on the body and soul. The author gives voice to unspeakable events and creates the oh-so-necessary space for her readers to enter into their own mind's mess. - Shannon, 24, Minnesota Thank you for understanding the feelings I couldn't put into words. - Jamie, 19, Arkansas Thanks so much for writing. I've been having a really bad OCD week, and I read the whole last third of it when I couldn't sleep last night. - Josie, 20, Colorado I couldn't put it down. It is very powerful and so well done, such a beautiful gift. Anna is a strong, courageous woman - what a magnificent job she did. - Mary, 63, Colorado This book is a strikingly truthful expression of one individual's journey through the ineffable. It is a homage to the beauty and despair of the human condition - and it captures the full spectrum of that experience in a way that only honest and cathartic self-reflection could. This anthology is the journey of one person, but just as all great poetry does, speaks to the collective soul of the reader, and humanity, itself. - Alex, 22, Colorado
