I began writing poetry about a year after a friend I'd known for over 20 years committed suicide. It actually started as a song titled "The End" performed by Jim Morrison and The Doors was playing on the radio. As the song was playing, I went into a place in my mind as I'd began hearing muffled whispers, feeling energy or vibrations and viewing what seemed to be symbols of some type.
