Scars That Bloom: A Life Told in Verse is a raw and unflinching poetic memoir of survival, resilience, and transformation. Through powerful, soul-baring poetry, Rachel shares her journey through addiction, mental illness, loss, motherhood, and the relentless search for healing.

Each poem is a scar that speaks?a story of pain endured, lessons learned, and the beauty that can rise even from fire. With striking honesty and lyrical grace, this memoir captures both the darkness of brokenness and the light of rebirth, reminding readers that even the deepest wounds can bloom into strength.

This book is not just about struggle?it's about hope. It's for anyone who has faced trauma, carried invisible battles, or wondered if they, too, could rise again.

Scars That Bloom is more than a collection of poems?it is a testament to survival, motherhood, love, and the human spirit's ability to endure.
