In the Shadows of My Mind

By Wade Mancini and Kristin Beckman

Pain develops on each page of the past from the abuse to the neglect that bloomed into the angry demons of the mind that wishes for the death of everything that ever existed with ones self. Pain and anger run from the depths of each poem as if a knife is being jammed into ones chest. You instantly feel the pain that the author has felt from page one.
Unable to reach beyond the destruction of self esteem as a child growing up feeling unloved and hated, the author pours her heart and soul into each word as she tries to discover the answer to her only question, WHY?
