These poems were written over a span of time starting in the mid 80's up to this year (2012). They flow through many relationships, two families, several children, many mistakes, and many attempts to understand my life and relationships.Some of the poems are quite painful to read again after all of these years, some bring tears of joy because of the happy times that they capture, and some show me definitively that life and relationships are difficult. In the end I hope that you see that I am still positive on life, on love, on finding a true soul-mate and will always have a positive outlook for the future. Call me a dreamer if you will, but in truth, I do feel that dreams can come true, all you have to do is keep dreaming.
