My Soul Cries

As Parris shares the crying of her soul, she hopes it will encourage individuals who have experienced sexual abuse, psychological and emotional distress to realize that despite the hardship they encountered, they still have a voice. Using spoken words as a calmative Parris helps to diminish the internalize pain that lace abuse and trauma. In My Soul Cries, Parris reveals the pain, shame, guilt, and restorative expressions that colors her life as she struggles to find self-worth amidst the neglect, abandonment, and trauma she faced in life. Parris illustrates through her words how the realization of one's circumstances can become the force that takes you from darkness into an enlightened space. She hopes that as she shares her voice and opens her soul, it will encourage others to face the reality of their circumstances whatever it is and speak up. It is from this hope that she invites her daughters to join her in giving life to their voices.
