    This collection is partly inspired by the work of poet friends as well as various famous poets and authors. The poems contained herein were written by myself, following various problems, joys, and confusions anyone can come across in life.

    My hope in publishing this collection is to in turn inspire others and encourage fellow or budding writers or indeed anyone going through a difficult time and to generally brighten up ones day.
