Hidden Words I Am Scared to Say out Loud: A Memoir of My Own Derogation

By Daniela Pérez Brugada

Since you are reading this you are reading part of my soul. My soul has been hurt so many times but I want you to know that it can heal. I am healing. I am giving you the power to read about my struggles and healing process. I trust you. I want you to feel identified. I want you to recognize those hidden words you keep in your heart and giving you the strength to let them come out of your lips. This is a story of my 18 years of living, recompilation of my hurting, self-abuse, heartbreaks, family issues, grief, love, healing. It is not a mainstream poetry, it is my life you are holding in your hands.
