Introduction
This book contains a mere collection of poetry, letters, and other works that have been compiled over time. The author has written over time based on circumstance and feeling. You will find that some of the pieces of works are dated and others are not; never fear, all that means is that the time was never recorded or simply the original was lost and I found a copy. If there are any other dated pieces of works that are especially vague, that just means that it was not labeled, but I knew the general date when I wrote it. Please keep in mind that the names have been changed to protect both myself and who they are written to, for, or about. You may find some opinionated text about certain parties, but such is the nature of the text that it is in. There is not much else to say, but the fact that as you read this book, I hope you enjoy my life, my thoughts, my feelings, but most of all I hope you enjoy the beautiful art of creative writing.

Let not the World Fall out of Orbit
As can be heard, hark the sound of shattering glass,
Let not the World Fall out of Orbit,
Instead have it remain steadfast and stay with the planets ahead.
Hark hear the cries and shouts of thousands as the ground shakes and becomes broken,
But let not the world fall out of orbit,
Lest those voices and none will ever again be heard.
Hark the sound of a million maiden’s broken hearts as their sobs and cries turn to storm,
But let not the world fall out of orbit,
For to loose love is to loose the holding bonds of the universe itself.
Hark listen to the silence be broken by pencil tips breaking on paper, frustrating test takers,
But let not the world fall out of orbit,
For
