“Secrets of the Heart,” Michael Vincent Dlask’s second poetry collection, expresses the challenges of everyday life that he faced. Sometime he disappeared into the background and felt as though his existence was being ignored by everyone. This collection of heartfelt poetry strives to help people understand that even though everyday life might be hidden, it’s never forgotten.

Dlask’s poetry symbolizes the realism and hardship that many people try to hide from others each and every day. The messages of these poems provide a better, more nuanced perspective on the life we live. Believe in yourself and learn to trust your inner-self. Remember the heart is the key to complete and total happiness. Fill it with love instead of regret, peace instead of hatred, and truth instead of constant lies. No matter what, just be yourself.
