I AM

I AM is an Author-biographical Poetry collection partnered with explicit narratives, demonstrating insurmountable spiritual courage, bearing emotional and sometimes unpalatable but heartfelt experiences of child molestation and sexual abuse. Written to unveil the hidden signs and pain through the eyes of the victim. The Author hopes to encourage and guide parents or caretakers in taking the initiative to build a wall needed to protect against child molestation and sexual abuse.
I AM also highlights the emotional healing of openly speaking up about painful experiences. Bringing light to the commonality in everyone who has been violated, facing fear, pain and loss. This heartfelt journey lead to Amanda’s innate, un-awakened faith and belief in God to defeat the hardships of her experiences, bringing her to a place of mental stability and self-appreciation. Making it known to other victims, they are not alone and their dignity and freedom are theirs to take back through speaking up.
