Through My Eyes

A collective account of trials and tribulations in my life. The sum of events I have seen and have been through. The time a span of several years of going through a rough time, to lose all that I had and the kind of people I encountered along this journey. Much of what I wrote are true feelings from what I had endured, which was not an easy road to be on; let alone find a way off this road. Most of the poetry is from a time in a dark place, but I never lost hope. I lived in darkness for a while but found my new beginning. The poetry is to let those who read it know, I know what it's like to hit the rock bottom but that there is always hope. The poetry I wrote is a reminder that what I went through, I am not the only one. There are some positive words in here as well to hopefully enlighten those who have felt what I do. As one of my poems states, "I Survived", is to let anyone know if I can overcome so can you.
