The Pain Behind the Flesh: Surviving the Wounds No One Could See

The Pain Behind the Flesh by Dominick Tice is a powerful and unfiltered memoir told through raw storytelling and poetry, a journey through trauma, silence, addiction, and survival.

Born in St. Louis and raised in chaos, Dominick shares what it's like to grow up carrying pain that no one could see. From a childhood marked by yelling and broken promises to the moment life cracked wide open, this is a story about finding light in the darkest places. Each chapter pulls you deeper into the truth of what it means to survive abuse, addiction, and the constant battle of mental health, not as a victim, but as someone still learning to breathe.

Told with brutal honesty and poetic grace, The Pain Behind the Flesh is more than a memoir, it's a testimony. It's a message to anyone who has ever bottled up their emotions, drowned in silence, or felt unseen. Through faith, reflection, and the courage to speak, Dominick proves that pain can be transformed into purpose and that God never wastes a wound.
