Jay and Shelter once existed together, this poetry is a reflection of the time when they split into two individual beings, both fighting for a place in the world, and a record of when they came back together

This book
This Poetry Book is a direct reflection of me and the transitional period that I went through during maybe the toughest time period in my life. The guy here in these pages, was raw, unedited, and for the first time ever, spilling out onto the world. Expressing himself without regard and no longer fearing the opinions of others. For so long, he pent up his emotions for so long, he was terrified of the reflection he saw in the mirror. This was him finally letting it all out and learning to love himself.
If I wanted you, as my reader to take something from this book it is this: Do not be afraid to change, embrace your emotions, and show them no matter how wild they can seem. Finally, progress is baby steps.
One of my favorite rappers says, You reject these niggas, that neglect, your respect, for the progress of a baby step
- Kendrick Lamar.
My other favorite says I know you desperate for a change at the pen glide, but the only real change comes from inside
- Jermaine. Cole
You need change, you need storms, you need pain, only then can you grow.
- Jay Shelter
