Kevin Faulkner's debut poetry book,
What Struggle Brings
, takes the reader on a three-part journey through
The Dark
,
The Haze
, and
The Light
. These sections explore the full range of emotions and experiences we might face as we undergo the challenge of discovering ourselves and our place in the world. Raised in a broken home, with a shattered faith, and loss of purpose in life, writing this poetry collection was Faulkner's way of understanding depression, anxiety, addiction, and heartbreak. This healed his wounds by organizing his thoughts and opening his heart again to the ideas of love, life, God, and everything beautiful. By reading this poetry collection, the author hopes that you, too, can find the beauty in
What Struggle Brings.

...Or at least I couldn't for the longest time. I have spilled my soul into these pages. Repaired my broken heart through the process of admitting just how tattered it was. Maturity comes with time. Peace is found through pain. To live, to grow, to garner hope, first it has to rain. I pray you find yours quicker than I did.
Maybe this will help.
With love,
Kevin
