Voices of the Heart is not just a book of poems. It is a living map of one manas experiences. Every page represents a love lost, a love found, or a love renewed. The events of the authoras life over the past three years and the many emotions that challenged him or brought strength and hope in a time of darkness and loneliness are the life force of voicesapure, raw feelings. Uninhibited thoughts and dreams both beautiful and scary are expressed with total honesty. If you have ever felt disconnected from everyone in the world or felt that others could not possibly think or feel the same ways that you do, guess what? They do. And this book is for you. aIave felt different and disconnected my whole life, but when I shared these poems with others, I found we are all connected through our hearts and through the experiences and trials that each of us must eventually face.a
