Into the Light

This book of poems was compiled during a period of heartbreak and mourning. It did not start of as a book of poems but just random outpouring of grief from a tortured heart. The initial period of disbelief and yearning was intense. In my mind my world ended, but life just kept on going. I wanted the world to stop so I could get off. Of course, I had to keep living. The world did not end because my heart was broken. It was cathartic to let myself live through the pain of loss and loneliness. Many tears were shed and several of these poems were written in the early hours of the morning. Writing these poems was my way of letting go of my resentment and anger which I felt after the breakup with my ex- boyfriend. It is always difficult to let go of someone our hearts treasure but it must be done to allow our souls to heal and move on to the next phase of our lives. I hope these poems touch you in some way and may you find peace and tranquility as I did if you are suffering as I did. Let this book be your companion in the early hours of the morning when your tears wake you up, when the worst part of dreaming with a broken heart is knowing you will wake up and it will still be broken. When you think of the one you love with some else and it breaks your heart all over again. When you feel that no one is ever going to love you again. Remember as you journey through the pages of this book that love is the most important thing in the world. It is painful to find it and then lose it. You are not alone. Rest assured, you will find love again.
