Kweisi, Thanks for sharing... I returned to writing at the death of my mother. I enjoy writing about love today and Triumph tonight.

I can relate to this video because I view poetry as a way of healing from traumas and tortures.

Dear Kwesi that was intresting, thanks. I have tried to write a book about love and its ending, not very clever however the raw words and mixed emotions are what I have tried to reproduce in words. Brian

The written word is very powerful because 2003 I begun to write while searching for some kind of spiritual meaning in my life. In my first book "Secrets of the Inner Heart" I wrote poems and prayers that not only helped other readers who have struggled through pain, grief. sadness and despair it also helped me to heal from my own suffering as well. Thank you, for sharing your most secret meaningful inspiration of overcoming in the time of grief.

I 100% agree that poetry helps you deal with a lot. It has helped me deal with everything since I was 13. I am in the process of publishing my first book or poems and I hope to inspire or help someone as you did for me.
