Writing poetry or stories or even doing art is one way addicts and others who have suffered share their pain and turmoil that not just drug addiction brings into their lives and the people it hurts along the way . Sadness and desperation are universal themes in these poems, which often forge a strong emotional connection between the writer and the reader.
Especially if you have had similar frustrations . I loved the poems even though they made me feel sad at times .. but also happy for the thought of my life could have been worse than it is now .. if some one reads these poems .. and feels something then it just shows how much of a connection we all have just by reading this poetry . So this book even though a short read , was an emotional ride , and in places one that I could relate to . nearly crying in places , some of these really broke my heart . but I also felt blessed for where my life is now and where I could of ended up many years ago ., But I feel a connection to some of the poems written in this book , not because of the drugs and the hardships he had gone through to get where he had today , but because of the pain and turmoil he had became and the trail of pain he left in his travels , and looking at yourself in the mirror and not seeing who you really want to see . So I had a connection to him as a writer , and to the feelings that we all hide now and then through our lives . These Poems , were deffinately wrote from his heart and soul , born out of sadness addiction and hardship , these poems have of course that universal theme , that alot of us suffer with some sort of mental illness or issues in our life . we cant just stand there and cry about it , we need to ask for help , otherwise we will all end up down this dark and lonely road . So some of my favorites from this book i loved .. and will re read again and again. Unwilling time traveler (page 20) Add, Easy as I through Z (page 23) I found you (page 35) Beyond Reality (page 38) Running (page) 47 Never again (page) 64 I hope you read this book .. one day . #jmaxwell #soberthoughtsfromthecrazyhouse #poems #emotional #reading #poetry #universal #writing #read #drugsandalcohol #reviews #reviewer #readingtime #reviewing #books #shortreads #bookstagram
