Beneath the Surface: A Book of Poems |
|
"Beneath the Surface" by Barbara Garay is a collection of poetry and prose that touches on the experiences of trauma related to witnessing violence against her mother and being a child abuse survivor through a powerful poetic voice. Barbara’s words focus on overcoming destructive emotions that follow from experiencing such trauma. With heartfelt honesty, she reveals how the path to recovery for her began by first facing the shadow of depression and anxiety. She then started coping with these struggles by becoming an emotionally healthy woman through self discovery and self acceptance. There is also a whole section of beautifully weaved love poems full of romance, passion, and soul to soul connections to show that there still is love in you after trauma. This book is full of poetry that heals, poems full of insight that assist in channeling your higher self, poems that promote respecting others and their alterity, and poems that stress the importance of evolving ourselves to overcome the things that serve as limits to growth. Her words speak to the possibility of authentic happiness.
