About the Book

I would like to dedicate the words written in this poetry book collection to every single individual that I have encountered throughout my lifetime; even the negative elements. For, if I never seen or felt the wrath of your power; these images would have never been imprinted in my mind. Although, the visions that the corrupted and the evil has bestowed upon me, aren't always the best images one should be carrying around with them. Those very images also truly opened my eyes to what lies within the depths of this world. I have seen it. I have felt it. I have lived it and I have survived it all. I have two words to say to everyone period that has been involved in my life and those words are thank you. Thank you for blessing me with this gift. Know that you have not beaten me. For, I am the true winner here. Through your heinous and cruel attempts to break something that is unbreakable. You have only made me stronger and more powerful. Having suffered through all that I have, I now have more belief in this world and the people in it, than I ever have before. And I also want to thank all of you for reading my words of both triumph and defeat. Hopefully they can reach someone else who has once been through the unimaginable and provide them with hope. I am living proof that things do in-deed get better. The poems that dwell within Reflections & Shadows are just that. Reflecting back on the shadows of a life that haunt this strong survivor to this day. Given away to an abusive family by the very people that brought her into this world, the Author had to find an outlet or risk going insane. Having nothing else to turn to, she found her vintage point behind the pen she held in her hand. It was her only release, her only escape from the reality that surrounded her. Each one of these poems tells a story of either triumph or defeat, creating visual art with her words through all elements of life; strength, betrayal, abandonment, violation, love, sorrow and success. The words that live within the depths of this book are very empowering and humbling as well. Let this survivor's words of agony and accomplishment etch themselves into your soul. This is truly an inspiring, one of a kind poetry collection and you will never look at life the same after reading it.
About the Author: Melissa is a very passionate individual, not only in her work and family, but life in general. The obstacles she has had to endure and overcome has left her with a different outlook on everything around her. She feels that there is always a positive to every negative situation. The light is always there, regardless of the darkness around you and she is grateful for even the horrendous acts she has lived through. "Lived" being the word. Everything has given her a better view and outlook of the world around her. It took Melissa a long time to find a way of coping with all that has transpired in her lifetime. Her words are her way of expression, her method of dealing with everything that has been imprinted into her mind. Anything can trigger those old feelings and every time she feels overwhelmed, she stops whatever she is doing at that moment and writes about it. In her words. " It's cheap therapy." Melissa's belief is the pen has always been mightier than the sword and just like the books we bind together; the words of the world will help bind us all with love and compassion. Melissa has written several short stories that been published in magazine's such as Ellery Queen's Mystery Magazine and having won the Editor's Choice Award by the International Library of Poetry in both 2006 and 2011 for her outstanding achievement in poetry. By Melissa seeing her words in print, she is actually living her dream and she would love to take this opportunity to thank you all in helping her make her dreams become a reality. Look for more upcoming stories from this strong willed and spirited author. She truly appreciates all of you that help support the dream she has spent a lifetime trying to achieve.
