About the Author

Being emotionally centered is difficult in our current society in America. Growing up in Canada as a Caucasian woman of European descent was not easy at times. This was further complicated when I started feeling different than other people. Through many trials and tribulations, school yard incidents, classroom squabbles made growing up difficult I persevered. After years of trying to hide and protect myself, I have finally accepted and am proud to be lesbian.and such I have learned that it is okay to be different and that one should rejoice in our differences. This poetry book is written in a chronological autobiography style in the hopes that it will speak to and perhaps guide and help others through emotional problems and help those who are having problems personally to get out of the rut and feel better about themselves. Though not directly aimed at GLBT youth, I hope that this will be helpful to others who feel that they are different, or to those who are being teased and taunted for being who they are. Melanie Thiede is a recent university graduate, and works as an intuitive energy work practitioner. She has had several poems published in school yearbooks and literary magazines. Melanie has also been published by the Famous Poets Society and the National Library of Poetry.
