Blurb

            It's a collection of poetry that is both happy and sad at the same time. Seemingly unrelated, these poems sketch a picture that is meant to be felt rather than seen. They are witty, emotional, passionate, thought-provoking, hopeful, and sometimes tragic. Each piece is a part of the author's soul, a figment of her imagination, and a window to her most cherished dreams. In a simple yet profound way, every verse relays a message, in the hope that it might guide the lost souls through their darkest times.

Teasers

“I was also cornered by hateful people, now I live in my shell,
Into the deepest darkest nooks, my soul now dwells.”
~Must I Say Hello?

“I want to say this to you, my dear,
We did our best to make her happier,
But she had a sad soul, my dove,
She wasn’t an easy person to love.”
~To Be Fair

“Why are the people you love so hard to please?
Should you not be able to do it with ease?”
~A Strange Truth

“I understand the hatred for I have seen that beast,
I understand sadness for I have felt its greed,
I know of fear, it has been my friend for long,
But what is love? I don’t know that song.”
~I Understand Now
