Things That Grow Back

There are things we lose that never return.

There are other things that do.

Things That Grow Back is a collection of poems about living through illness, grief, love, heartbreak, family, survival, and the long process of becoming someone new. These poems sit with the realities of pain without looking away, while searching for the small, stubborn signs of hope that remain.

Written with honesty and compassion, Kathleen Farrell's debut collection explores the stories carried in the body, the scars we inherit and create, and the unexpected ways healing takes root.

For anyone who has ever had to rebuild a life, a relationship, a dream, or themselves, these poems are a reminder that growth is still possible, even after devastation.

Some things break.

Some things bloom.

And some things grow back.
