[Samantha Mcdade · Rating 4 out of 5]

This book was given to me by my sister. She and I write poetry. I love the majority of the poems I've read so far. To me, she probably should have packaged this book with her last one since they both deal with sexual abuse, just one shows more of her personal feelings and the heartache she experienced. The very first poem made me cry and I put the book down for 3 days. They are really good.

Author Lacresha Hayes presents her soul in Becoming: My Personal Memoirs. She gives the reader a diary in poetry of her life: the pain, the joy, the anger, the love. And in doing so, she allows you to see inside her emotions and her life.

Hayes is a survivor, a minister, a founder of Christian Vitality magazine and a poet. It doesn’t matter whether your life has had the ups and downs that hers has. You will find something in this book of her life that will speak to you. It might be “Toss It Out” where Hayes urges you to get rid of the pain and burdens in your life. Or if your heart holds revenge, you might want to read “The Debate” to see how Hayes handled what she calls “the dark sludge” in her heart. To feel the joy that has come into Hayes’ life, read “Important That You Know.”

By seeing the growth, love and joy in Lacresha Hayes’ life, you can perhaps experience your own Becoming.
