Ramblings Of A Lonely Mind

In Poetic Ramblings Of A Lonely Mind Ms. Griffin's poetry explores and examines forces common to all our lives. We all search for possibilities, are holders of secrets, have moments of self-doubt and have questioned faith and fate. She openly and honestly bares her soul in a poetic journey in search of self. Enter the world of bipolar magnification; visit life from the darkness of depression to the glorious elation of victorious spirit. "For others to understand you, you must first understand yourself" Questioning emotions are part of life's cycles. The joy of anticipation, the giddiness of consummation, the warmth of satisfaction, the disappointment of broken promises, the hurt of neglected emotions; all lead one to question their worth. The poet holds you close to let you see how she gets past the pain, fights off the darkness and survives to love and trust again. Poetic Ramblings Of A Lonely Mind will awaken and challenge your spirit.

Sensual, poignant and sinister, this is a story of obsession - and survival. Rachel fends for herself in a country brought to its knees. Since Jason left two years ago, she only ventures beyond the safety of her storm wall when food supplies dwindle. Her one contact with the outside world is through Noah, who runs the market. Hoping he might be the answer to her isolation, she proposes a date. When another man turns up in Noah's place, she is intrigued and repelled in equal measure. And when Noah denies all knowledge, she sets out to track down the stranger. Could this be a new beginning, or is she being drawn into a dangerous game?
