Stars on the Bedroom Ceiling 

Stars on the Bedroom Ceiling explores themes of trauma in childhood and repercussions stemming from experiences during the developmental years of ones' life. Brutally honest and personal, Raines opens up past wounds and explores the healing process in this collection of poems from the soul to let readers know that they are not alone.
