The Stretch Marks of My Soul

By Sabah Shehabudheen

The Stretch Marks of My Soul is not just a book of poems-it's a mirror, a confession, a quiet revolution.In this stunning debut collection, Sabah Shehabudheen cracks open the emotional truths of pregnancy, postpartum, and the often invisible weight of motherhood. Written during the rawest, most tender days of becoming a mother-while living apart from her husband and navigating the storm of early motherhood-these poems speak to the ache behind the smile, the silence behind the strength, and the soul that stretches far beyond the body. With fierce honesty and lyrical beauty, Sabah gives voice to the emotions so many women feel but rarely say aloud-rage, guilt, loneliness and power of survival.
