My Own Soul

About the Book

I’ve been writing poems every since I was about 12 years old. I had this crazy habit of writing down the things that hurt, embarrassed or caused me any unexplainable emotions. I would put them under my mattress and at night I would pray about them alone just me and God. I was too afraid to share them with anyone, so worried about people and what they would think of me. After a while, my little stack of papers became a huge library of thoughts and emotions, which were so powerful to me.

This book only holds a few of my poems there are so many more. I turned some of them into songs because I had a wild dream of being this big time song writer but never pursued it, like I should have. The others I turned into my own private diary. I was content with just having my own diary, until one day I felt a powerful desire to write this book. A desire that would not allow me to sleep at night. It was then that I said, “ Trishon, it is time that you rise up to your calling, use your anointing and share one of your gifts.” So, here I am, and there are all of those obstacles which stood in my way. I am so over you! I realized that the things which caused me the most pain are the very things that made me the strong woman that I am today. The people who walked out of my life, caused me to love and appreciate the ones that walked into it. The people who laughed and doubted me made me to realize that I am so full of courage, so I thank them all.

I Titled this book “My Own Soul” because some of these poems touch me in a deep place. It is just a taste of my journey, style and passion. I hope that you will enjoy, embrace and relate to some of them. I appreciate you for reading my poems, which are inspired by myself and some of the people I’ve met throughout my journey so far.
