    About this ebook

    Cries of Sorrow is a book of touching poems written about the trials and tribulations and the pain and suffering I have encountered during my childhood. These are my darkest secrets, untold stories, and unrevealed emotions, which have held me from seeing the blessings in life. Overcoming these trials have made me a better person today. Hopefully people in the world going through similar situations will learn that drowning in your sorrows, pain, and suffering will only make things worse. Acknowledging, forgiving, understanding, and letting go will help the moving-on process, and this book is how I have done it.

      MY BELOVED ANGEL, I am nearly mad about you, as much as one can be mad: I cannot bring together two ideas that you do not interpose yourself between them. I can no longer think of nothing but you. In spite of myself, my imagination carries me to you.
