I've had one of those lives that seems destined to inspire others. Over and over again I've faced new battles and yet somehow I've managed to conquer every one of them. It is my sincere hope that those who open these pages and read the words inside will feel themselves uplifted and encouraged. I truly know what the dark times of the soul can do to a person, but I also know that we each have the ability to rise above and come out of the darkness into a new world of wonderful possibilities. After each of these poems, I've written a small piece about how each came to be. I often wonder what factors drove the great authors I so admire to write their masterpieces, and I feel it adds more to the poem to know its origins. I hope you feel the same way. Most importantly, open your heart, listen with your soul and let these words speak to you. Life is filled with cycles-and though many of them bring pain, all things are temporary. The pain eventually does go away.
