punching bag, my revenge, my fear as well as my

pain. I haven’t had much luck at being able to

express the happy and lighthearted. I have sat in

the midst of all things good, with not one word to

write. This, a small portion of poetry I have written

over the years, is very serious, vengeful, sorrowfilled

words with touches of hope. My life, my

defining moments, heartbreak and misery are now

out in the open for all to see. Between these lines I

hope you find something that touches you, guides

you and reminds you that we all walk in the same

direction.
