A collection of poems written from 1997 till 2004. They are based upon events in my life and sometimes just words from that time. They were written with the emotion of the time and reflect my personal feelings during that time.
If you would, take a walk with your mind through a period of a life when life, love and even death played on my particular gray matter. The pictures that you will envision are the same that reside inside your own chamber of electrical impulses. Take some time to walk outside of your own mind and into another, walk slowly and carefully; the mind that you step on might be your own. So enjoy the trip, travel through reality and fantasy with stops along the way that might surprise you. The walk is to enjoy that which life provides in all of its designs. So hold next to your hearts those thoughts that emerge along the walk for they are yours.
