You know it's very difficult to regain trust after it's been shattered by someone you totally trusted. I still have great difficulty going into public places; my eyes don't move fast enough to watch everyone, and I hate anyone being behind me. I suppose that's what happens when someone who professes to love you and thinks how wonderful you are suddenly, five minutes after telling you that, attacks you from behind, stabs you, and almost kills you. Writing these poems brings me a lot of comfort even though sometimes I'm very upset writing the traumatic ones; it does take away the pain if only for a short while. So if in reading them I bring some comfort to the reader, I'm happy, I've done what I intended. So for all those very special people in the world who are trying to face horrible and nasty situations, here is Demons of the Mind but a Light Still Shines.
