This book is the compilation of selections from over four books of poetry written by Steven W Bates and has been created specifically as a resource for www.poemspeak.org to contain only poems written about the struggles and situations created by living with PTSD, depression, and suicidal thoughts. It is the purpose of Poemspeak and the author to provide the reader with awareness that they are not alone in the hardships and hazards of these conditions and that they can survive, and thrive, while still learning to cope with, and manage, life with PTSD and depression. It is the hope of Poemspeak and the author that the reader finds solace, comfort, coping skills, compassion, camaraderie, and hope within these pages, as well as resources available along with the knowledge that there is someone, at least one person, that cares about them on a 24/7 basis regardless of category, class, color, country of origin or character. It is our primary hope that reading these poems will help in the battle to stay safe, stay strong, and stay alive!
