This book is a compilation of poems that I wrote over my lifetime. Writing these poems was a survival tool for me. I hope they speak to you, I hope they inspire you and I hope they bring you a sense of peace as they are meant to do so. This book is filled with a full range of emotions on the many experiences I have had in my life.

Grew up writing as a survival tool, thought I would take a few poems to share and leave for my boys to have when I’m gone.
