A peek inside the book...
Wildflowers
In the center of the garden
lies a truth none will know
while tears fall in silence
from the mourners' row.
Before a slab of white marble
delicate wildflowers grow
from the seeds of the secrets
you refused to let go.

Lover of the Light
Why would I want the dead of night?
When I could have the magic of twilight
and the riot of the dawn?

So Much More
You are strong.
Remember that.
You don‘t need their words
to build you up
or turn you on.
Ignore the urge to reach out to the past.
You are worth so much more
than your history has to offer.
