After surviving a dramatic childhood I decided to go it alone at 16. Falling for all the wrong things in all the wrong places. I touched the edge of insanity, writing kept me sane. It fl owed out with tears. Now I smile when I wake, my family is my all. Twisted love is my collection of love poems, some sexy, crazy, some with a twist. All written from my heart and through life experiences. Enjoy
