A poetry book written by Christopher A. DeMartino.
Walk with me on a journey through pain, depression, anxiety, and self-rejection. There is no happy ending, just a further realization of self. A realization that all people, all things have a purpose, and that no matter how hard it may seem, hope is never lost.
It is my sincere hope that by reading my poetry, you can relate to the messages I convey. Some of my poems are happy, and some are sad.
Isn't that our life in a way?

Epiphany; a book of poetry and prose pt.1
Epiphany - sudden insight or understanding. the beauty in yourself will never disappear, your spark may faulter but you will only shine brighter afterwards. this book is for people who don't know how to express their feelings or verbally speak them. "I usually know almost exactly how i feel. the problem is, iI just can't tell anyone." - Meg Cabot this book proves that you can go through millions of rough patches in life, fall down to many times and think that you can't go any further, it proves that no matter what you go through, you can get back up and live your dreams. the dark can swallow everything up so you cannot see the light anymore, but the stars are still there. you are one of those stars, you shine brightly through the darkness. believe in yourself, be yourself, and don't let anyone get into your head. stand strong, and be strong.
