Sleepless Hollow
These painful feelings held in the palm of my hand,
in this dreary sleepless hollow, will keep me here until I learn
to let them go.

In Healing, author Olivia Cooney offers a collection of poems born out of her experiences of emotional abuse during a long-term relationship and the happiness she found during her healing.

Healing, she discovered, is a journey filled with grief and insecurities interspersed with moments of joy. Inspired by the process of healing, these poems dive into themes of abuse, grief, reinvention, and finding peace after trauma. Cooney includes thirteen heavy poems, eight transitional poems, and thirteen hopeful poems.

Healing offers insight into Cooney's journey, putting into words both the pain and joy experienced during the healing process.
