Introduction
It has been a goal of mines to write wise words from my own wonders. This book is only a reality check to abbreviate who I really am. I once was lost without any priorities, and I had no way of life, but I was a live and living without any morals. With a pen and paper I found my way, and in my reality I seen and witness better days. I had to hold my head up high and do what is best for me, but I found myself in the mist of stress. I took it one day at a time, and did what I needed to do to pull through. It was and relieve off of my chest to get rid of the stress, and it helped me take that next step in life.
I hope for the best, and I have live my life hoping for things I may not every see are get, but the bright part of it is that I am okay with it. My reality has made me a man in general, and I strive to be a better man once I unfold my magnificent plan. I
I am sincere with an open mind, and I hope to find my way on this new path that I have chosen for my life. I have watch opportunities come my way and slip right away from me. I always pick up the pieces and those same opportunities come right back around.
Poetry is me and in my reality I see what I need to do to pull through. My book shows how much of an independent man that I am. It is poetry in small words of a small knowledge. My book gives advice to the readers who will take it in and walk with it. It’s not easy being an independent man, sometimes it seems like times get harder before they get better. It has been things in my life that I did not understand, but I found a solution and proved that I can do what is not expected of me. Being independent has opened my eyes to a world where I belong. I stand my grown and do what I need to do in order for me to make it the right way.
Reality check shows how my poetry unfolds and my stories get told. Reality check shows my story on saving my brother soul. It is a poem I wrote a year ago that float through my mind time after time. I know a lot of people can relate to it because we all have lost someone close to our heart. I gain my respect by giving myself a reality check. My pass is my pass, but my future is in the future, and it is my pass that made a better future for me general. I can write for hour on this subject as I reminisce about the pass and the fun times we have had. It wasn’t always fun because he was a bad head, but he always looked out for me and that is why I gave him special blessing from my heart.
Giving myself a reality check has given me self-respect. In my book I tell my love poems and how I found a love so deep that her love sweeps me off my feet. Underneath I seek to find a love that’s o true it open doors for me and I hope that my readers would find a love so true that it open doors for you to.

It is all about being there for your kids on this journey into Fatherhood
Through the mist of my life I been through changes that made me feel different, and after a long look in the mirror I seen that I was different. I have complete confidence in myself, and this is what made me come up with the source that comes from confidence. There are many different sources that bring a person confidence. Without confidence your word might be in the heat of trouble because confidence brings faith, and that faith will bring love. You got to have complete confidence in what you believe in.
I dream of doing magnificent things that brings me joy and happiness. My book tells poems about my dream within my dream. I know that it is not easy growing from a boy into a man, and I understand the problems that come in hand. I am not a judge
