About this ebook
Lovelace
Tira aka Lovelace mother of three boys and a lover of life and what it offers. I am a true Gemini, woman of many faces. I have been writing poetry and spoken word since I was a child and never dreamed that I would get to this position where I am publishing. I have had to work for everything that I have and what I want I will probably have to work even harder. Nothing in life is free if it doesnt cost money then it cost time. I consider myself an achiever not because I succeed but because I at least try.

INTRODUCTON
When I was younger people would say I was shy. I had no friends but enemies seemed to just come from the ground like flowers bloom in the spring. You would never know how big it would get or when it would die. I developed attitude and strength in my adulthood. Family and friends would say that sometimes I go too far and that my thinking and outlook is a bit warped. I say whose isn’t? Adults would always say growing up Just because you are of age don’t make you grown
. I found out who I am as I grew into my adulthood.
Life traumas and lasting moments helped me to realize who I am. I have decided that now I only can live for myself and to myself I have to be true. If I don’t then there is no reason to live. This may seem a bit unorthodox and it probably is but it has helped me survive through what a lot of people my age have never been through and probably won’t. Some self-inflicted and the rest… well the rest is just what I call life.
This volume of poetry is just a glimpse into my head my perceptions of Love, Lust, and reasons to just think. Some may not be able to handle the contents. If you can’t I am sorry give this book to someone who can. I am REAL and RAW I don’t believe in pulling punches or sugar coating reality. These poems are real life, real emotion and contain real meaning. I hope you find what you are looking for and if you aren’t looking for anything… then just enjoy my words.
