The War Within Ashly Hill

The poems in this book are about the constant battle or the war within

an addicts mind. The war of emotions and denial, the grief and the guilt.

Encompasses the need to cling to mind altering substances, and also the

need to let them go. These pages also go into the addicts mind when

it comes to growth and empowerment of sobriety along with everyday

struggles and happiness. The loss of love and redefining who a person is

by love, laughter and tears. The beautiful blossom of a mother given a

second chance.

The growth that resides in all of these emotions properly expressed. A

reminder to be kind and compassionate, to help instead of judging. Never

ending is the struggle to be better than we were yesterday, never ending is

the war within us all.
