Book Cover & Preview Text
Pain Is Love Pain is love But at what point does love have to become pain Love should be sustained A destiny ordained But I felt physical and emotional pain As you were striking me in vain Your weapons piercing my skin and veins Causing my bones to catapult into my brain Internal bleeding, I never felt something so strange And it was me that you blamed Bringing this upon myself is what you had claimed You walk around proclaiming You’re this great person, but you’re insane I begged and pleaded for you to stop But you were mentally deranged Pain is love But that wasn’t love That was destruction caused by an ill-tempered maniac To an adolescent essence I was supposed to be a testament An extension of you Now I have the same tension as you But I release it differently

About the Book
Broken Silence presents a collection of very personal poems that get to the heart of who author James R. Dixon is and what he has to say. He believes that sometimes the quiet ones have the most to say, but getting others to hear them can be a problem. Being different can mean that you may find yourself explaining your actions to others. Dixon has written Broken Silence to explain his feelings and emotions on many subjects that are important to him, as well as to change everyone’s preconceived notions about him.
After years of being persecuted by others who don’t approve of him, Broken Silence is also his break-through collection explaining his thoughts and feelings on relationships and other personal issues. Divided into four sections covering love, emotions, resilience, and good, these verse seek to offer hope and inspiration to others who are struggling to find themselves in the world.
Third time is said to be a charm, but turned out that it wasn’t
So what do I make of dating you as I felt my time was a waste
Good times were minimal, but then it becomes clear
You were brought here to teach me a lesson
About karma as they say what goes around comes around
I’ve been around with you on more than one occasion
