Welcome to My Humble Abode: A Book of Poetry
()
About this ebook
Welcome to My Humble Abode is a collection of Loves early and more recent poetry, arranged as a piercing look into the mind of a troubled teen. As an adolescent, Love experienced love and lost it. He experienced the deaths of those close to him. He has suffered through depression and survived, with the aid of poetry.
Troubled children are not alone. There are always others who have gone through similar tough times, and Love is a prime example. He thought he was alone until he found poetry. No child should ever suffer without hope, so this is what Loves words attempt to give. They reach out to heal. They reach out to embrace.
Tyler P. Love
Tyler P. Love dealt with troubled emotions from an early age as the child of a broken marriage. His outlet was poetry. Now an adult, he lives in Creston, Iowa, where he is working on a psychology degree. He hopes to one day be a psychiatrist and work with troubled youth.

PREFACE
This book is a collection of poems written over many years. They progress over time and tell of my life; finding love and losing it, happiness and depression, pain and anger, losing and keeping faith, the feelings of a boy and how they become the understandings of a man.
Grieve
I’m running
as hard and as fast as I can
trying to get away
but all I’m doing
is losing a day
in my short unfulfilled life
if you may call it that
the lies
the secrets
the untold facts
all I can do
is turn my back
and let my life go to hell
because there isn’t anything I can do
can’t you tell
don’t you hear that bell
the bell that just keeps ringing
it just tells me
my time is coming near
all this fear I hide inside
this is no place to hide
its a scary
dark place
where nothing
goes unseen
no matter how bad you wish
it was you who dies
the world has gone away in my day
and has left me here
to rot in
