John Robles’ My Unfiltered Thoughts Brings Love, Struggle, and Heritage to Life in Poetry
Fort Collins, Colorado Sep 19, 2025 (Issuewire.com) - In his new book, My Unfiltered Thoughts, poet John Robles offers readers an unguarded look into his life its joys, hardships, faith, and love told through a collection of poems that carry both rhythm and heart. Its not poetry for poetrys sake; its lived experience put into words.
A Life in Verse
Robles writes from a place where memory, music, and emotion meet. The collection takes readers from the Bronx streets of his childhood to Florida park gatherings filled with the beat of congas and bongos, to moments of struggle nights spent sleeping in a Jeep while his family stayed in a shelter. Each piece is unfiltered, drawn from a lifetime of resilience and the drive to keep moving forward.
In poems like Symphony in the Park, he celebrates the joy and unity of family traditions. In Unbroken, he tells the story of holding on through hardship. And in The Pisces and Libra Love Story, he traces the enduring love between himself and his wife a relationship that has grown stronger through challenges, mistakes, and years of commitment.
Love That Endures
Romance is woven through the collection, but Robles writes about it with candor rather than perfection. His wife appears in many poems as both muse and anchor, a steady presence in a life that has seen its share of storms. Whether in passionate verses like Forever in Your Eyes or in quieter reflections on shared mornings, the love here feels real earned through time, struggle, and devotion.
Speaking the Unsaid
Not all the poems are gentle. Some face the harder truths of family conflict, betrayal, and being misunderstood. Pieces such as Hidden Pages and The Disconnection speak directly to those moments when the heart feels heavy but the voice still needs to be heard. Others turn toward faith, grounding the collection in gratitude, prayer, and trust in Gods mercy.

Heritage in Every Beat
Music is more than a theme its part of the books structure. Robles grew up learning percussion from his blind father, who taught him to feel rhythm instead of read it. That rhythm is present in the flow of his verses, carrying the energy of his Puerto Rican roots and the family gatherings that shaped him.
More Than a Poetry Collection
My Unfiltered Thoughts is deeply personal, but its also meant to connect. Some poems read like quiet morning blessings; others arrive bold and unapologetic. Together, they form a portrait of a man who has loved hard, lost deeply, kept his faith, and never stopped finding beauty in lifes imperfect edges.
