Where The broken Things Bloom: Poems To The Ones Who Never Thought They Would Laugh Again

by Allena Scott

Inside these pages is the journey of a woman who learned that survival is only the beginning.
These poems explore the ache of what was taken, the miracle of what returned, and the beauty of rebuilding a life with steady hands, loyal hearts, a loyal partner and a sister by your side.
This is a book about trauma, yes—
but it is also a book about hope, tenderness, courage, and the unexpected ways life gives you back everything you thought you’d lost.
A testament to healing, and the softness waiting at the end of it.

✨Alpha review✨

In the poem “The Day She Proved It Again” the line “Because blood isn’t love” resonated with me so much as I currently have a toxic on and off relationship with a family member. These poems aren’t easy to swallow but are so beautifully done!
