My Love, My Pain, My Struggle, My Thoughts

Book excerpt: These poems allow you to take a walk with me through some of my darkest hours. you may feel my pain, understand my struggle, and bear witness to the love that I have. My poems are utilized as a coping skill to push out bottled emotions before the thoughts become a problem. The loss of my mother leads to many suicide attempts. Writing allowed me to relieve the pressure and pain. In many of my poems, I am not glorifying or bragging about my darkest thoughts, pain, struggles, or the things I’ve done. However, I will like for you to understand that if you could look up, you could get up. As dark as I may seem to write, my light is bright. I write to un-bottle my love, my pain, my struggles, and my thoughts. Enjoy.
