Jolly for NOW? (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798986625515)

Many poems are songs. Many songs are poems. I wrote these words to make sense of difficult times, dealing with addiction, mental illness, loss, love, and everything in between.I know I'm not perfect. Some things have to be lost or forgiven.Quote from book: "But you're Jolly for now, and your games are no fun.Your burden is heavy; now pull off that yoke.You say you're Jolly for now, but no one laughs at your jokes.You forgot me before, You'll forget me again.In the darkness, you'll ask me and say it in prose.When you want to be free, no longer tied like a dog to a post, You'll remember me, Jolly, when you pull your loved ones in close.Because I am the one who loves you the MOST."--Excerpt from The Ballad of Jolly and Sylvia
