Power of Poetry: If Not Spoken Then It Won't Be Heard: If Not Spoken Then It Won't Be Heard

By Lovelace

This book contains poetry and spoken word that will shock, captivate, and stir up the emotions of its readers. It breaks down thoughts and feelings on love, lust and everyday events that a lot of people deal with. This book can be controversial to some and passionate to others. It is meant to be real and raw. I tried to capture most of the aspects of love and lust. These are topics that people tend to walk around and avoid due to the levels and limits that discussion might take them. That is why I put this book together. I have also included pieces in this book that will inspire and aid in growth by enhancing your awareness of not only love but of life. The title of my book definitely says a lot if you do not talk about what is happening in your head and in your heart; you are not fully accepting yourself and what you are feeling.

Lovelace

Tira aka Lovelace mother of three boys and a lover of life and what it offers. I am a true Gemini, woman of many faces. I have been writing poetry and spoken word since I was a child and never dreamed that I would get to this position where I am publishing. I have had to work for everything that I have and what I want I will probably have to work even harder. Nothing in life is free if it doesnt cost money then it cost time. I consider myself an achiever not because I succeed but because I at least try.

INTRODUCTON

When I was younger people would say I was shy. I had no friends but enemies seemed to just come from the ground like flowers bloom in the spring. You would never know how big it would get or when it would die. I developed attitude and strength in my adulthood. Family and friends would say that sometimes I go too far and that my thinking and outlook is a bit warped. I say whose isn’t? Adults would always say growing up Just because you are of age don’t make you grown. I found out who I am as I grew into my adulthood.

Life traumas and lasting moments helped me to realize who I am. I have decided that now I only can live for myself and to myself I have to be true. If I don’t then there is no reason to live. This may seem a bit unorthodox and it probably is but it has helped me survive through what a lot of people my age have never been through and probably won’t. Some self-inflicted and the rest… well the rest is just what I call life.

This volume of poetry is just a glimpse into my head my perceptions of Love, Lust, and reasons to just think. Some may not be able to handle the contents. If you can’t I am sorry give this book to someone who can. I am REAL and RAW I don’t believe in pulling punches or sugar coating reality. These poems are real life, real emotion and contain real meaning. I hope you find what you are looking for and if you aren’t looking for anything… then just enjoy my words.
