Still the Morning Came

Monica C. Crum is known around the world for her haunting poetry and her courage in sharing her journey through childhood abuse, trauma, and mental illness. Through her words, readers have walked beside her in moments of pain, loss, grief, and despair, witnessing both the weight of her struggles and the remarkable strength it takes to survive them.Now, in this deeply personal collection of 100 poems, Monica invites readers on a journey from darkness into light. Divided into two sections-Evening and Morning-the book mirrors the emotional and spiritual path from heartbreak, fear, and uncertainty toward healing, hope, and renewed purpose.Within these pages, readers will encounter poems that speak to the realities of suffering, the scars left by trauma, and the loneliness that often accompanies life's most difficult seasons. Yet woven throughout the collection is a quiet but unwavering thread of hope-a reminder that healing is possible, even when the way forward seems impossible to see.With raw honesty, vivid imagery, and heartfelt emotion, Monica explores the resilience of the human spirit and the courage required to keep moving forward one day at a time. Her words offer comfort to the brokenhearted, encouragement to the weary, and reassurance to anyone who has ever wondered if the darkness would ever end.More than a collection of poetry, Still the Morning Came is a testament to survival, perseverance, and the enduring power of hope. It reminds us that even after our longest nights-when grief, fear, and sorrow seem determined to linger-the dawn still arrives. Healing is possible. Hope remains. And no matter how dark the journey may become, morning always comes.
