From the Author

Dear Poetry Lover,

If you’re anything like me, something deep inside of you knows poetry is special. That it is powerful. That it possesses the unique power to inspire … to motivate … and to heal. That it is a gift.

It is, in fact, all these things. I know because I’ve experienced it in my own life.

After silently battling depression from a child into adulthood, I turned to poetry as a form of therapy and release. It was during this process that the poems within Healing Yesterday’s Tears came to be.  And today, I can say that I am healed and free to live a normal, productive life.

Having experienced the true healing and uplifting power of poetry firsthand, I was compelled to share my discovery. This is the reason I published Healing Yesterday’s Tears. To let others know they are not alone and to serve as a self-help tool that can help encourage, inspire, and motivate anyone to overcome any obstacle they may face. 

And it is my purest intention and sincerest hope that at least one of the poems in this book can be of service to you.

Wishing you all the best on your path to true happiness,

Kyli Santiago
