A Life Untrusted

The words within this book of poetry were written during a special period of my life during the early 1980's, a time when I built, and also messed up, relationships with a lot of good people. The words were typed out on an old Underwood typewriter that I bought from my brother-in-law's second hand store. The typewriter is long gone, but over the years I did manage to keep hold of the papers that the words were written on. And it was those words that helped me to understand where I was in my life at that time, and softened many of the struggles with the loneliness and longing that I experienced back then.

Now that I have the opportunity to share those words, my hope is that they help to inspire the reader to carry on with and overcome their own struggles.
