Emerging from the Shadows

From the moment we are born life is full of joy happiness and even sorrow. From the moment we take our first breath life becomes a journey in which we experience a lifetime of happiness and trials. As we grow we become wounded by the various trials and hurts that we have endured. In this collection of poetry I hope to take you along my personal journey through; health and illness, love and loss, and hope and desire. This collection is a narrative account of my attempt to emerge from the shadows and reach others who like me have faced the storms of life and still have faith in dawn of a new morning.
