"From The Heart" is a collection of poems written over the years, with short stories included that inspired the writing of each one. My first poem, written when I was nine years old, was right after the death of my mother.
As with all my poetry, when I couldn't get words out of my head, I had to sit down and write about my feelings, my thoughts, my sorrows, and my happiness.
Unable to talk to anyone about my feelings, I expressed my dreams, my hopes for a better life in my writing. Things never shared with anyone before are exposed here.
As many of my hidden feelings come to light—some good, some heartbreaking—or at least they were heartbreaking to me at the time—I hope you enjoy taking a walk back in time with me.
