About the Book

About the Author

My name is Patricia Ann La Fountain I was born in New York State, been through many abusive relationships. I have 2 sons, 7 grandchildren, 2 sisters, 3 brothers, 2 half sisters and 2 half brothers. I have resided in Canada for the past 30 years and presently living with a very patient and loving man for 17 years. My father left when I was 6 years of age with another woman. I began writing poetry shortly after. My mother remarried and life wasn’t the easiest, many tragedies followed. The only way I found that I could get some sort of peace was in writing. Even today some of the past memories still haunt me because of the many unanswered questions. I try to also put myself in other person’s situations and wrote how they must have felt in their many trials. I write in hope to help others in their lives. This book I dedicate to all those that have been and are being abused and that we may all find a sense of peace out of the things we could not control.
