Sharing with friends my poem ‘Fears and Feelings”, just published in the Literary Review ‘Ivo Review’, issue three, April 2026, theme Confession. Thank you to the dear editors.
No one knows, or could know,
except me,
of all the wrong turns which haunted the life
that I was forced to live;
of the lost battles which I did not dare shout to the world,
but cried for in my corner, alone and embittered;
of the unfair attacks I was unable to defend myself,
or of some, I do not know how I got the strength,
and had been victorious, defeating them;
of the loyal and affectionate love I found,
but lacked the courage to embrace;
of the faith and hope I had to invent,
for not possess them in the right size,
when I got up each new day;
of a strong and paternal God who provided me
with an army of angels, who guided me through
some dark and crooked paths I have traveled by.
