Role Reversal:  Turn Pain Into Power
*RECOMMENDED FOR READERS 16 YRS  AND OLDER

Please Reconsider

You say you feel my pain...
  when I cry all my tears.
You say you’re scared of nothing
  yet you’re halted by your fears.

You say you know me well,
  so completely through and through.
I can hardly tell
  since what I do is new.

You call me ever so bitter,
  frozen deep into the core.
You claim that I can’t make it
  by taking this path I know!

Please reconsider how you scrutinize
  the way I choose to go.
Why do you suspiciously wonder
  when I told you long before?

My life is a promise
  made prior to my birth.
I must dedicate my soul
  to approach my life’s true worth.

In everything I do and say,
  I do so with this certain will.
I await God's instructions,
  it’s His plans I must fulfill.

What He has designed for me
  will be forever mine.
What I worry constantly is
  will I grasp it in time?

No wasted energy
  do I have to spend
  on devilish worries
  of a faithless friend.

We all have our own connection
  to the very same Source.
It is no fault of mine
  that you tune out His voice.

Life is a journey
  that you first must begin…
Proceed with something small
  until you reach the end.

Whoever told you life was easy
  was telling the devil’s lie.
It is the journey to know God
  the second we are born
  until the one we die!

Excerpts


When a parent first smokes rock,
  it is a choice that was made.
It is an option that addiction
  quickly snatches away.
-excerpt from "Children of the Pipe"
I became a prisoner to my skeletons,
  fearing their exposure.
I shied away from my path,
  thinking my chances were over.

I erected walls of protection
  so I could complete my journey
  but the walls nearly collapsed on me.
All those chips became a burden.
  -excerpt from "Traveling"
My mind is now questioning
  how such a tremendous desire
  has survived all this fury
  that your actions have inspired.
Yet, if I said I still didn’t want you,
  I’d surely be a liar.
  -excerpt from "You Got Me...Somewhere"
What makes my books even more unique....
My books are even more unique because they are poetic autobiographies...individual poems I've woven together to tell my story.
(Click here for a brief video describing my books.)
 When you read my books cover to cover, they tell a story.  The bonus is that my story is made of individual poems.  You can always read your favorites or whichever suits your mood or even need at any given time.
