Soul Open

Soul Open is a book that reflects the poet's struggles in navigating difficult experiences in his life. In this collection of poetry the poet exposes his soul, and paints a picture of the pain and suffering he endures, but at the same time moves forward towards healing. For some reason the poet couldn't cover up real emotions, and he couldn't smile at the right moment and mask the pain. The journey in this collection is raw and real. The poet spills the words on the page, and this allows him to move forward, cry and curse. The honesty in this collection is compelling. There is no hiding or painting of soft landscapes. The poet is emotionally naked and he represents the quote "Tell the truth and shame the devil" as the old folks used to say. This book is a vulnerable masterpiece that leaves the reader in a state of understanding and compassion. When reading the truth in this book, it leaves readers less alone because the author drops all walls and shows his true authenticity.
