    About this ebook

    "Some Lessons of Life Through Poetry" is a profound and heartfelt collection of poems born from a journey of escape and self-discovery. In the face of an unfair and painful reality, A crossroads where life and death were the choices placed before me. Through the depths of despair, a conscious decision to embrace life, a decision that would ultimately lead me to true happiness amidst the torment.

    I explored themes of resilience, self-discovery, and the transformative power of choice through a poetic lens. The poems delve into the complexities of abuse, the struggle of being seen and unseen, and the journey toward healing and self-worth.

    "Some Lessons of Life Through Poetry" offers an intimate and empowering glimpse into my soul as I navigate life's challenges and find strength, hope, and wisdom in the written word. This book is a source of inspiration and solace, inviting readers to reflect on their paths, find the courage to embrace life's challenges, and discover the beauty of self-discovery.

      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.
