Tell That to My Scars
Tell That to My Scars explores what it means to live through harm—and live anyway. Written with lyrical precision and emotional clarity, these poems chart the terrain of trauma, silence, and the sacred work of self-reclamation.
Alongside the poetry, the collection includes a companion section with reflection prompts and gentle somatic practices—an invitation for readers not just to observe healing, but to engage it.
Tell That to My Scars is for anyone who has ever been told to quiet their pain, and chose instead to speak. For anyone who has tried to make themselves smaller to fit inside someone else’s idea of love, safety, or faith. And for those who are learning—slowly, bravely—that they we’re never too much.
This is not a book about resolution.
It’s a book about returning to yourself.
