"Tears of a Son" is a compilation of poetry for anyone who has ever experienced love, joy, lost, hurt, and pain. This book shows that there are other ways to find inner self. It was written through the eyes and mind of the author after a series of emotionally draining events, which greatly impacted his life for the better. It is Godwin's unique outlook on life as he came to a crossroad after trying to do things on his own; he turned to God for answers and it was revealed to him that the pen is stronger than the sword. Once he acknowledged God, the Lord worked through his life, towards a brighter future, with the power of words to set him free. He wants the inspire others to find their outlet to express themselves in positive ways, seeking God for guidance in their lives.
