""I can't imagine a life without poetry. I probably wouldn't be alive if I never wrote poetry. My life has always been complicated, and has always been frustrating at times. There are poems in here that have been long forgotten from my memory. I thank the lord everyday for giving me the courage and strength to write down my true feelings about my life and how much sorrow I went through. From life to death, from love to loss, from heartache to suicide. I've given my life's work in these poems. I never imagined my life would change. It reflects so much in these poems.""
