Love Is All That Matters describes my journey through the agonizing fires of my soul, which gave me a deeper meaning of what grief really is-Love.
The only way out is going through it, but it is the hardest journey I ever took..
But as my soul burned, I knew I would forever burn in agony, if I didn\'t keep Walking through the fire.
Our lives are turned upside down, and will never be the same again.
When we grieve, we feel so alone, as if we are burning from the inside out from pain and deep sadness.
I wrote this book with hope That my story and poems provide optimism for all who read it.
It was clear That my poems held healing and understanding not just for me but for others as well.
I said of course, and the feedback she gave me was overwhelming.
After sharing my poems with my therapist, she asked if it was ok if she shared them with her other clients who she felt could relate.
The poems bubble out of me and always have lessons to teach me.
My poetry is a way for the teachers of my soul to speak.
My poetry is the means by which I can put my heart on paper, and share with you emotions That are rarely captured for all to see, and understand.
I do not sugarcoat my words, My poems are not nice, but they are honest.
My poems in this book are raw, gritty, and real.
I can tell you with all my soul, Love is what saved me.
There is no question about it, as my story will tell.
Yes, with Love can come great sorrow.
I am a firm believer in love.
To truly Love is to risk it all.
Love is a double-edged sword.
Also Love is the only thing That really matters.
It is an incredible teacher.
I have learned a lot about pain.
In the days, weeks, months, and even years since my Jimmy\'s sudden passing, I have learned a lot about myself.
How could I be? I lost so much That day, yet I also gained parts of me That would never have been born, were they not forged in the raw Fires of Love.
I am not the same person who lost her husband That fateful day.
Step by step as I walked through the fires and with each baby step forward, and sometimes backwards, I learned so much about myself, and grief, and self-love.
