Conversations with Myself: Is Anyone Listening?

“rescuing your inner child is learningto love the parts of yourselfyou were once told to hide” In her debut poetry collection, Conversations with Myself, Is Anyone Listening?, A.M. Leaves gives voice to the quiet, often unspoken realities of growing up as the "easy" child — the one who learned early that being small was safer than being seen.Through confessional poetry and prose, she traces the weight of childhood trauma, the slow comfort of denial, and the breaking point that cracks you open just enough to begin again.Her writing captures the tension between silence and truth, the ways we learn to carry pain, and what it costs us. For a long time, silence kept her sick. These pages are what happens when that silence is finally broken.Raw and unflinching, this collection moves through grief, anger, and the quiet, unglamorous act of saving yourself — not in one big moment, but in the small decision to keep going when you have nothing left.If you carry the weight of your inner child, if you're searching for proof that there's something on the other side of the hard parts, or if you've ever asked "Is Anyone Listening?", this book is for you.You don't have to carry it alone.This book contains sensitive subjects. Please read with care. Read more
