This book of poems provides a foundation to explore the complexity of having ones life built up and then completely scattered over the course of five years. The ability to face ones truth- no matter how difficult- is core of this epoch. On one fateful Friday evening in the Vanderbilt University Medical Center, a choice was given and made. By accepting the pain treatment of Dilaudid, chaos ensued. And a life, once so precious- lost. Death comes in all forms, for this life, the crisis of a near death experience, subsequent transient ischemic attacks, and PTSD follows. This is the discovery that a person can be living, yet dead at the same time. One woman navigates profound life and tragic deaths and the beginnings of life again. This epic adventure capturing the current times of trauma. All is laid bare. In order to ride the waves within such a season all is under review especially the definitions, structures, desecration and rising of the collective. Through the eyes of an individual woman, a collective endeavor is grasped. Please note this book dives deep into joy and sorrow. Trauma to the mind, body and spirit are discussed. Miscarriage, Near Death Experiences and Divorce are explored. As well as conception, bodily exploration, love, freedom and autonomy. A critique of the societal endeavors women must face each day is captured. The struggle to balance ambition in a world that historically shuns such desires outside of a specific persona. As in the already released we Women me, joy. the last section makes the case for true joy based in a deep faith, acceptance of receiving and facing what true healing actually produces: Love The beauty of poetry allows for many facets of oneself to resonate, both for the reader and the poet. While this is a memoir, A Life Lived, her name means victory. is an enduring tome to view ones own transformative events that shape humanity. A Note from the Poet: "One career examination. One miscarriage. One Near-Death. One Post NDE PTSD. A few TIAs in between. One Divorce. Recovery. One rebuild. A new company. One year of travel. One person continuing to show up in my nighttime dreams. And finally... One beautiful journey to discover whom I already knew inside. Similar to the Book of Job, one must encounter all of life that is outside one's control. As the Greeks captured. Everything within these pages has been written from the first person. And are true. We are in a time where the truth finds it way out. It it not always kind nor flattering, but necessary. A great tragedy. For me, I learned how to face death- in all forms- head on. And I'm still in the process of learning to live again. And continue to encounter great joy. My hope with this book of poetry it allows your mind, body, soul and spirit to release and heal. Healing is real and alive and active for those who seek it. May Peace always be with you." -Victoria Lee Case This is the author's first book of poems.
