The Mirror dates back to when I was a child, to a time I was suffering with severe Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. This is an inspirational book for people who are dealing with issues and trying to cope from the demons of PTSD. The stories you are about read, some are long but never dull. Some of the stories are based on relationship and based around family and friends. Some were written during the time of conflict or war. Poetry is to relax the mind when your mind is filled with all kinds of hate and killing and there is nowhere for things to go and no more bullets left to shoot at the enemy and nowhere do you go from here.
