I’m having conversations with pain Receiving his words like a burning flame The more he talks the more my heart leaks But yet and still I continue to let him speak His words are much stronger and I still hunger When each syllable makes me weak

About the Book
A Beautiful Rose includes poems that were written based on Yvonne’s personal experiences. Within these pages, she gives insight on key relationships in her life.

When young women read Yvonne’s poetry, she hopes that they realize how beautiful and special they are regardless of unfavorable circumstances. Yvonne celebrates life and love through her poetry and most importantly, she celebrates herself; a beautiful rose.
