Step into the lyrical world of Lost Boyz To Men: From My Heart To Your Eyez where each poem is a portal into the depths of the human experience.


Prepare to be ushered into an intimate poetic journey that spans the raw recesses of the human experience. This isn't just an autobiography; it's a lyrical testament to the resilience of the spirit and the transformative power of words.

Each poem serves as a window, shedding light on the myriad phases of the author's life. From the naive wonders of childhood, through the turbulent storms of adolescence, and into the reflective introspections of adulthood, every poem is a snapshot, capturing moments that are both deeply personal and universally relatable.

Trials lay the groundwork. These poems echo with heartbreaks, missed opportunities, and battles with inner struggles. The poet doesn't shy away from the darkness that sometimes shrouds life, instead choosing to confront it head-on with words that both sting and soothe.

Transparency is where the soul of the book truly shines. While observing these poems the readers will find brutally honest reflections on the self, unfiltered emotions, and revelations about the author's struggles with identity, relationships, and purpose. These poems act as confessions, giving voice to the silent sufferings and hidden yearnings that many of us feel but are often too afraid to express.

And finally, in Triumph, the tone evolves from despair to determination, from contemplation to celebration. The poems here are tributes to victories big and small—overcoming past traumas, finding love in unexpected places, and embracing one's own uniqueness. They resonate with hope, reminding readers that after every storm, there's a rainbow waiting to be discovered.


Accompanied by original illustrations that mirror the evocative nature of the poems, Lost Boyz To Men is more than a collection of words. It's a symphony of emotions, a manifesto of survival, and a beacon of hope. Readers will emerge from its pages with a renewed appreciation for life's highs and lows, and the preciousness of each moment in between.

 

About the Author



Marquis "Red" Jackson's story is one of redemption, resilience, and determination. Once a troubled teenager lost in a haze of misdirection and rebellion, Red’s life was a storm of poor decisions and missed opportunities. The streets knew him, not as a menace, but as one of its many lost souls searching for meaning in all the wrong places.

Yet, even in the darkest moments, a spark of potential always flickered within him. That spark, however faint, caught the attention of those who saw more in Red than he saw in himself. Through the intervention of mentors, compassionate family members, and moments of profound realization, Red began a difficult journey towards self-awareness and redemption.

Today, Red is a beacon of hope for many. He celebrates a blissful 17-year marriage with his best friend and confidante, Brandy. Their partnership is a testament to love’s enduring power to heal and inspire. Together, they have brought four beautiful children into the world, each a reflection of their unwavering commitment to family and to creating a brighter future.

Red's past now serves as a powerful tool in his mission to help others. His testimony encourages young individuals on the cusp of despair, showing them that change is possible, and that life’s darkest moments can lead to its brightest days. His story is a constant reminder that redemption is always within reach, and that with love, patience, and perseverance, anyone can transform their story into one of triumph.
