“Simple Words” is my collection of poems and quotes that explore themes of self-discovery, healing, love, and personal growth.

You slowly buried yourself for so many years, start the excavation today, dig yourself out like a long-lost treasure.

I know that even a few lines can fill the whole page. Even a few right words can fill your emptiness. A good poem hugs you tightly and lifts your feet five inches off the ground, like an old friend happy to see you again after so many years.

I’d like you to know that extraordinary difficulties are only meant to make an extraordinary person out of you and only those who were broken and learned how to fix themselves know all the little parts they are made of.

That pain is what guides us: we would burn to death if we couldn’t feel the fire, and we’d end up living our whole lives with the wrong person if betrayal didn’t hurt.

That you’re running into obstacles because you’re moving forward but keep looking back.

And you’re chances of success are measured by the number of times you’re prepared to fail.

You are unique, you are a rare species. No wonder it sometimes feels like you’re on the brink of extinction. But you will survive. Again.

Jackie Lee
