About the Author

This book is about how I survived years of abuse. I can’t say what I feel inside because it comes out wrong. But I can write my feelings down on paper. Maybe this book can help someone else get through hard times. You can love someone, but you can’t make them love you back. Finding and then losing love, it hurts. It makes it hard for you to trust again. But you take small steps when you think you’ve found love again. I live in Napoleon, Missouri. It’s a small country town of about 269 people. I have three brothers. My dad died on September 4, 1976, but my mother is still alive. I had been sexually, physically, and mentally abused most of my childhood. Some days I just wanted to die than keep going through the pain I was going through. At the age of eighteen, I got pregnant, moved out of my mother’s home, and got married to the man I loved. The only thing is he didn’t love me the way I did him. He divorced me and remarried two months later. I remarried four months later to a man I loved, but he didn’t love me either. So I divorced him. I’ve had a few relationships after that. None ever lasted long. I’ve been single now for eight years. I enjoy my freedom now. I enjoy writing; it’s how I express my feelings.

Customer Reviews

"A review of Kat Bussell's Poetry Collection Volume 1 (The Romantic)
This collection of short lyric poems is unlike any other collection I know. The author uses neither rhyme nor meter, but she certainly can impart a tremendous amount of emotion with each poem. By pouring out her feelings in the white hot state, Kat manages to achieve several things. First of all, a great deal of nervous energy is banished - at least temporarily. When she's feeling utterly, painfully alone, and nothing seems good, the very act of spewing out the toxins will give some relief.
It is clear that these poems were not written to be analyzed coldly. Rather, these poems remind me of a heated liquid that has overflowed the walls of its container. Nearly all the poems are percolations - the released emotions are so powerful that releasing them has a cathartic effect. Many of these poems not only tell the day they were composed, but the time of day as well! The author is very frank. about this. On the back cover of the book
Maybe this book can help someone else get through hard times."" In other words the author is often using the poems to purge herself of harmful feelings ..
In other cases, articulating her feelings suggests a solution to a problem. One particularly powerful poem is ""The Day We Parted"" which pours out a mother's longing for her absent children. On the other hand, ""Shake Me, Baby"" is a powerful statement of female desire for a man. To really get full enjoyment from these treasures, a person needs to read these poems slowly and carefully, and to savor each one like a bottle of fine wine.
If you read these poems carefully you will find that the effect is like a series of snapshots ? at different times the camera will take a different view.
