In this honest and moving memoir, Leslie Harper Worthington chronicles her journey of abandonment, trauma, and resilience. Through the raw and intimate lens of poetry, she recounts her childhood shaped by the discovery of painful truths about her parentage and the tumult of adolescence without adult guidance. Her story is one of yearning for connection, unraveling the lies that shrouded her identity, and learning to forgive. This collection of poems is a testament to the complexities of growing up abandoned, yet it is also a celebration of love's quiet strength, the scars of grief, and the eventual peace that comes with understanding. Through verses of sorrow and healing, Worthington offers a reflection on the search for belonging and the strength to keep moving forward.
