I Am by Tracy Ahrens

Tracy Ahrens‘ poems take us on a spiritual journey, reminding us that each person is a piece of a puzzle wondering where we belong. Her love poems in this wonderful collection capture the essential truth of the human condition: We seek the union of love but finally realize that we are alone, disappointed, and misunderstood, but still searching for an essence of love, knowing that “none will measure up to.”

–Loren Logsdon, teacher, editor and short story writer

 

i am, by Tracy Ahrens is a book of poetry that is more than simple words but rather a painting of a heart. Emotionally spellbinding, there is a poem for every emotion we experience when going through a breakup or abandonment, be it lover, friend, or family member. Always honest, sometimes scathingly sad, the words are like a stone thrown through a window; breaking upon the page as sharp and crystal clear as tears. It is not easy to put your fears and anger, loss, and hope into words and lay them out for the world, but Tracy has done a brilliant job with a book that will speak to anyone that’s had a broken heart. A hauntingly beautiful collection for anyone.

–L.B. Johnson – Award Winning Author of Small Town Roads and other non-fiction
