The Door I Finally Opened Poems from the Self I Keep Finding

By Miles Mel

This poetry collection is about becoming the woman who was waiting on the other side of fifty years. Moving through childhood memory, motherhood, marriage, love, loss, grief, disappointment, laughter, and the sacred work of returning to oneself, these poems honor every version of a woman's life: the little girl, the daughter, the dreamer, the mother, the wife, the survivor, and the soul still becoming. At its heart, this collection is about the quiet courage it takes to open the rooms once avoided and finally step through the door.
