In the Silence of the Unspoken

Poetry is a personal journey.  I found myself returning to places and people in my life that live inside me and will never truly leave me.  Words have incredible power and poetry is bare and raw.  In poetry, we have the freedom of no rules, no bars, and no place to hide.  Our heart is free to soar and die.  It is in poetry that we are truly ourselves and perhaps, who we were or want to be.  This work is very close to my heart, all these words in this book have touched me, in them, I have felt passion beyond the realm of reason, loved with my whole heart, cried for what I have lost and still love, hurt more than I thought I could bear and experienced the living death of existence.  In this book is my soul, heart and dreams.  Some poems are fanciful and totally built on illusion…while others have filled me with more than I can ever express.  May the words touch you, inspire you, and fill you to truly live…
