Mother Needle. A Fractured Inheritance (en Inglés) - B. L. Graves

i let the bridge burn,

but she lit the match.

flames swalled the past,

smoke carried her absence,

her fire could not hold me--

only scar.

i walk forward,

my own spark unbroken.

--b.l.g.

Written in the aftermath of relapse, Mother Needle is a poetry collection that confronts the reality of loving a parent lost to addiction.

With raw imagery and brutal honesty, these poems explore abandonment, grief, and the moments that linger long after a childhood ends.

Mother Needle is for readers who grew up too fast, learned love in fragments, and are still learning how to let go.
