Poetry And Beyond: Life Is But A Dream

This book is a collection of poetry and sayings from the emotions and experiences of the author's life and perspective throughout her teenage and early adult years from the ages of 12 through 19. The subject matter varies in nature, from love to perseverance, respectively. Writing became a passion and a positive means of expression through awkward and often confusing teenage years - this book serves as a monument and diary to highlight these moments. This book is an inspiration through adolescence that despite the perception that sadness, heartbreak, stress and confusion often plague the daily existence of many teens that happiness, prosperity, love and even self-acceptance often lurk around the corner, usually when unexpected. Self-love is half the battle of happiness. The other half is realizing that your dreams are right in front of you. You can achieve anything if you believe. After all, life itself can be a dream if you allow it to be.
