    About this ebook

    This collection of my poetry is mine but it is written through experiences I have shared with other people. This book should let people know they aren't alone when they look in the mirror and don't like who is looking back, or when someone leaves them again and they wonder why no one seems to want them. The feeling of being loved and lost and afraid to trust anyone, being pushed into forgetting abuse or forgiving it when you don't want to. This book is a way for others to understand that when you are feeling the most vulnerable people need to hear you speak.

      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.
