Love
Love is a force much stronger than I,
It is so strong and powerful yet more sensitive than a cry.
Love is passionate, love is deep.
Love is so sentimental, it can even make almighty God weep.
Love is not selfish, nor full of pride.
Love thinks with her heart and never with his eyes.
Love is not puffed up or full of itself.
Love is very generous and constantly thinks in relation to someone
else.
For if you have love in your heart, keep it there until death we part.
Love.

About the Book
My book is a collection of poems used to inspire everyday people. I cover everything from sex, religion, politics, education, etc. These poems will make you laugh. These poems will make you think. These poems will encourage your soul. I have taken the risk by allowing you a glimpse of my life, and my personal thoughts. In my opinion people want to read about real life experiences not fiction. You will see that not only will you have had some of the same thoughts, but maybe some of the same experiences. My overall goal is for my readers to walk away with a sense of awareness. I ask everyone who reads to understand the content of the book and not its rawness.
