Miles Between Who I Was and Am: 1

Bol

Miles Between Who I Was and Who I Am is a poetry collection forged over fifteen years of movement, music, loss, doubt, and survival. Written across highways, backstage rooms, late-night diners, quiet bedrooms, and long stretches of internal reckoning, these poems document a life lived honestly-even when honesty was painful.The book moves through love and its absence, rage and restraint, depression and endurance, disability and dignity, faith lost and ethics rebuilt, the intoxicating rush of the stage and the hollow silence that follows applause. It explores the tension between who we were, who we thought we'd become, and who we are forced to be when comfort disappears.This is not inspirational poetry.It does not offer easy answers or polished redemption arcs.Instead, it offers presence-raw, reflective, and unfiltered. It is about choosing not to become your worst thoughts. About staying when leaving would be easier. About finding meaning not in certainty, but in continued motion.These poems are records, not performances. They are written for anyone who has ever felt alone in their struggle, unsure of their direction, or tired of carrying weight without a name.If you are still reading, you are still here.And that matters
