About this ebook
A poetic portrayal of the unseen tempests of emotional and physical abuse from the bestselling author of Abandoned Breaths and I Needed a Viking.
Raw and honest, the acclaimed author of I Find You in the Darkness shares her intensely personal, yet relatable stories through finely woven poetry. This new edition of Silent Squall includes an updated introduction and a brand-new chapter of modern poetry. Find understanding, comfort, and hope from the affecting poetry of Silent Squall.
I have singed wings,
and the edges of my heart
are charred, and crisp
by flames of your dismissal.
Yet even though I sift
through ashes of the past,
as I maneuver through
tomorrow . . .
my soul’s fingerprint
will be everlasting.
