Why Am I 13, Crying 30 Year Old Tears?

This book is a collection of poems and prayers that chronologically coincide with events from author, Melissa Ross' life.

Each poem represents a need, a void, a pain, and a place of release for her. It was in that place, where she was able to let go of all of the unwanted feelings of frustration and anger.

This book is written in three parts: Part 1 is a collection of poems that she wrote between the ages of 13 to 17. Part 2 are the prayers that she wrote from 2009 to 2012. This was shortly after her true encounter with Jesus Christ as an adult. Part 3 is just a few poems written by her newly regenerated self.

The prayers are designed as a source of inspiration for you, the reader.
