Publisher's Description
There are many beautiful poems within these old woven-together words. Each speaking the weary truth. Reflecting back in time, this poetry points to a repeated history of human yearning. The wanting need to share my life with someone. The sincere beginnings, the attempts at reconciliation, and the anger that followed each failed attempt. But somewhere along my winding unpaved road, love was found. I simply had to keep searching and making changes within myself.

“The poignancy of James Murphy's work strikes a chord within each of us. We, all, at some point in our lives search for love in all the wrong places. It eludes us. We try again. Is it the delusion or the illusion of love that holds us in its grip so powerfully? The search continues, and James describes this journey masterfully.”
“Jim Murphy's lyrics tell of a very poignant time in a young wanderer's life. They are the story of his seeking knowledge gained the hard way: on the road. His words are . . . maturing emotions simply spilling out of a young, inquiring heart.”
