A transparent and vulnerable read… a soul bearing read that other men can benefit from.

Acknowledgments
First and foremost, I give all thanks and praise to my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Thank you for loving me even when I don’t love myself at times. Your love never ceases to amaze me.
To my immediate and extended family – I love all of you. A heartfelt thanks goes to all of the brothers who provided constructive feedback, who threw topics at me to write about and most importantly for being who you are, mighty men of God.
I want to extend my sincerest gratitude to the following individuals (who have sown into my life): Robert & Shantae Charles for keeping me on deadlines, editing this book, the great cover and photos, and anything else I failed to mention (you’ve done it again, and it’s all God); Cynthia Portalatín for your contributions to this book as well as proofreading this. I’m expecting your debut to be released before this year is done and the best is yet to come; so hold on! My sister and fellow author LaKia Morrison – congrats on your debut book Can You Handle My Pearls; my sister and fellow author Melodie Blackwood, congrats on your wedding, and I am waiting, patiently that is, for your sequel Finding Him! To my brother, Pastor Darrell Kelly – congratulations on your e-book Inspired to Succeed. This is just the beginning and I know your up and coming projects will encourage people to fulfill their prophetic destiny. My sister and fellow author Felicia S.W. Thomas – congrats on your book 80 Proof Lives. Your book WILL minister to young adults. To my brother and fellow author Michael Beckford – thanks for pushing me throughout the years.
I would like to extend my appreciation and love to my church home Four Oaks Community Church and to all of the ministries, church families, public and private schools, bookstores and different outlets that have supported my ministry. To the Tallahassee Authors Network (TAN) family, you are truly my brothers and sisters in writing. I still believe 2011 is the year of big moves, and I am enjoying the opportunities God has placed in front of us. I look forward to what He has prepared for all of us. To the Tallahassee Writer’s Association (TWA), I’m thankful to be part of a wonderful organization, and I thank you for speaking into my life.
If I forgot to mention you, charge it to my head and not my heart. I’m getting old – smile!
A Word of Encouragement
God has a blessing for you if you are willing to follow your dream. I encourage you to not cast away your confidence. You will never realize maximum fulfillment, if you don’t fulfill the dream He gave to you. I am a living witness to that. If He ordained you; He’ll sustain you.
Author’s Foreword
When I was given the title for this book by my editor, I didn’t have to think too hard to write poems for this book.
Speaking for myself as a man, I know the things we go through and the things we as men feel. Sometimes we try to go behind the veil and hide what we think or feel, because society says we’re not to express what we think or feel. As you read these poems, you’ll see different types of men and the things we go through that some of us don’t want to express to others. I hope light can be shed through the different types of men; so that we men can grow in godliness, and so that women can understand what we as men think of from time to time. Even if you believe we’re from Venus, I invite you to travel to the planet of our mind.
To the ladies, as you read this, understand that although we may not express our true feelings, this book will shed light on what we really feel from behind the veil of masculinity.
With that said, I pray that you open your heart to His Spirit and that you will allow Him to minister
