Your Heart, My Soul

This book will be different, but unique.
For my poetry is real and somewhat sheik.
They're all short stories about my past.
Family, loved ones, and dreams that couldn't last.

Freedom of speech {so called} I am blunt.
I can write about anything and everything I want.
Fighting for life, children, and my rights has been a hassle.
Throughout my life it's been a long battle.

Reading these poems are pieces of me.
Funny, sad, about love, and eternity.
Opening to others is new for me as well.
Hopefully, guide, or give you relief, time will tell.

Thank you to those who gave me the chance.
Thanks to my Family and Kids for the influence.
Thanks to my Husband for dealing with my crap.
Thanks to God for getting me out of those traps.
