The Distance Between

The Distance Between is a life told in verse — a journey from boyhood hills to hard-won peace.

From the winding roads of Cash Hollow to the quiet hum of a black Jaguar at midnight, Tim Simpson traces the miles between who he was and who he became. Through childhood wonder, first love, devastating loss, depression, broken marriages, redemption, fatherhood, faith, and the steady grace of enduring love, these poems chronicle a man shaped by both light and shadow.

This is not a story of perfection.

It is a story of survival.

Of forgiveness.

Of learning humility through fire.

Of discovering that the distance between despair and hope is often crossed one surrendered step at a time.

Tender, honest, and unwavering in faith, The Distance Between is a collection for anyone who has wrestled with darkness, carried regret, fought unseen battles, and still believes in redemption.

It is a testament to the truth that no mile is wasted — and no life beyond restoration.
