Sleepless Nights was written from those thoughts we keep hidden deep within our souls, those thoughts we never share, but keep to ourselves. From its inception, Sleepless Nights has been a continued awakening of a man's spirit, seeing life through deeply seated feelings, which I turn into words. Each thought, each emotion is something very special to be shared with others. I won't lie and tell you my path didn't come with hardships. And when the lion roared I stopped long enough to collect my thoughts. And later I would write them for you as I did with, I Should Have Screamed . My journey is not mine alone, each of us walk a similar path with all its joys and sorrows. I'm very proud of this endeavor, for it's my best poetical work to date. And I'm equally proud that I was able to share a few moments writing with my nephew and friend, Christopher Appel. Many of you may know him from my poems, Chris and The Special People . sleepless Nights , is a continuation of my thoughts from The World Outside My Window . Two long years in the making, reaching the bottom and fighting back to finish another chapter in this thing we call life. Dan Hanosh Dreams Are Yours To Share
