One time, one place, I remember the look in your eyes. I felt it in my soul. I tasted its beauty and bathed in its gold. Then let it go before you could take it all away.

For years, Kimberley Tent courageously battled through a post-traumatic stress injury that instigated suicidal thoughts, depression, and bulimia. But it was not until she met her demons head-on with truth and forgiveness that the road to healing became clear and the war within was finally won.

In the final installment of The Parts series, Tent shares insightful poems that lend hope and promise to those who suffer from PTSD. Divided into six parts, Tent's verse poignantly explores goodbyes, atonement, enlightenment, self-reflection, freedom, and the sum of parts as she discovers that healing requires honesty, a desire to live, and the knowledge that beauty and acceptance comes from within. Included is a list of her ten essential daily practices and other inspirations to ponder.

Sum of Parts is a collection of poems that speak of one woman's experiences with PTSD with the hope of helping those suffering to courageously delve into their own trauma and ultimately heal, love, and forgive.
