There is the experience of being a child and teen coming from a home with abuse. Will the life that grows from such dark nightmarish ghoul find some light again? You see a bud that blossoms after a wretched winter's frost, but what comes next? Like the growth of fire from spark to ashes and back into fertile fuel for the next becoming this poetry book opens up and takes you through the journey of a young girl compulsively looking for love and attention in some misguided places and back home to herself. Jessa Leigh talks about abuse. fear. shame. depression. first loves. miscarriages. dreams of love, friendship and comfort. the everlasting journey of finding a relationship with one's true self.
