A poem should make you feel. It should take you on a journey into the words written. It should be as though the words you are reading were written in a sense, for you. Have you ever had something you felt you wanted to say but could never find the words yourself? Every passage in this book was taken from life's events. Whether happy, sad, heartbreaking, or tragic, it's written with the raw emotion that everyone feels in their real day to day lives. I have had my share of ups and downs myself. I have been to the darkest parts within me, but in the end, I was able to find the light. That is what I want these poems to do for my readers. Have you ever slipped into a dark time in your life? Ever thought that no one would ever be able to understand? Do you dream of happiness amongst that heartache? A truth amongst all the lies? Then let my words help take you out of your darkness and into your light.
