    About this ebook

    I can only hope that my words might somehow make a difference, although I would be satisfied if they reached the heart of only one person. This book contains a collection of my thoughts about life, love and hurt. These poems helped me better understand my own heart, maybe they can untangle yours.

      Yours is the first face I saw when I came into the world. At first, I was scared. It was so cold and bright. But then I heard your voice. I remembered it immediately — warm, deep and comforting. I didn’t expect you to be so big. My whole body fits in

      What Are You Really Crying About?

      Jun 14, 2020

      — “I love to cry — as long as it’s not about my life.” It was a simple statement, a line I’ve said a thousand times before. But when your dad is a shrink — like mine — you never know where a conversation might take you.  A few months ago I was visiti
