With therapy he learned how to walk, talk, eat and write again and used writing to cope with the emotional stress he endured. Channeling his pain into carefully written word combinations to form rhyming poems that offer inspiration, wisdom and powerful emotional expressions. After sustaining burns to 48%-55% of his body including his face, he grappled with the emotional stress of everyday life now as a person with a disfigurement.
HIS STYLE: David's poems are rhythmic and structured in a way that rhymes and flows naturally. By taking his time crafting every line into a melodic masterpiece, his work has often been considered lyrical. He sculpts each sentence by counting syllables and shapes his pain on to pages to form paragraphs. He uses commas and refines every segment of his rhymes to ensure that the reader reads the poem in the same general tempo and manner as he intended. If you are interested in poetry that can be dark but uplifting, based on personal struggle, personal growth, life or just prefer poems that rhyme then this should prove to be an interesting read. This is David's 1st ebook and it contains 10 poems from his personal collection. Contains 3100 words.
