Poems for Mental and Spiritual Healing
I started to write because of reoccurring memories. I work all day I could not shut my mind down. All my memories from childhood keep coming back while I wanted to rest. My inner voice is talking to me which made me decide to write words down. I decided to put them in writing for the others to relate to. That serves as an inspiration for me to write poems and come up with the title “Mental and Spiritual Healing.” I call it Mental and Spiritual Healing because mental serves as my reoccurring memories and spiritual came much later because the poems took a life of it’s own.
Reading this book felt like someone finally put my silent thoughts into words. You can feel the author’s inner battles and peace on every page. It’s comforting, honest, and incredibly human.
