Customer Reviews

Well written, but not really what I was expecting.

I was hoping to find something more relevant to losing self monitoring and becoming one with yourself, and while these poems do take you through an inspiring journey, it just didn't hit how I wanted it to. Pretty good poetry, just not what I thought I was getting.
