🩸How do you heal from a love that shattered you?


In the Darkness of Shards is a fiercely honest, emotionally raw collection of poetry by Catherine Anne Castillo that explores the brutal beauty of surviving emotional abuse and breaking free from trauma bonds.


This isn’t just a book—it’s a mirror for those unraveling, a lifeline for those rebuilding.Written in the wake of a relationship that blurred love and harm, these poems illuminate the path from confusion to clarity, from silence to reclamation. Castillo doesn’t write from the distance of healing—she writes from the messy middle, the place so many are still trapped in. And through that, she offers truth, solidarity, and hope.
