Book Cover & Preview Text
DISAPPOINTMENT TO GOD as I have waited for You to send the Calvary I can only imagine what You think of me watching as I stumble around hoping something worthwhile can be found now I know I have much potential for Your glory but the tale of my story has thrown me all out of whack crippled from the attack although here at the foot of the Cross praying You have a merciful clause so all Your efforts for me will not be in vain and somehow my loss will be to Your gain I just need You to cauterize the wound otherwise I fear the doom or that my prayers Your ear merely trashes but I have been through too many rites of passage faced too many foes so my hackles rose nevertheless, I just froze unable to move or my faith to prove crying instead of trying sitting instead of standing leaning on my own understanding which is why I must be a disappointment and why You refuse me any healing ointment

About the Book
Many people go through very difficult times in life. The author documents the journey through his dark night of the soul. The poetry paints vivid word pictures with brutally honest feelings about what he is experiencing. He does not pretend to be something he is not. He merely writes from the darkness as he struggles to find the light. As the book progresses, the light at the end of the tunnel becomes apparent. He becomes, in fact, what he always thought he was in theory. This book is not a light read, but it is very easy to read.
