sometimes i fall asleep thinking about you touched me to the deepest core of my heart. It has been a very long time (or perhaps the first time) that a poetry book could touch me like that. It really made me emotional and feel the pain through the words, and I think that’s really special. The words hit so hard, which makes it painful but beautiful all at once.
This is definitely one of my new favorite poetry books!

Here is one of my favorite poems:
SELF-REFLECTION:
i wanted us to work so badly because you made me into the worst
version of myself. and i wanted that to be worth it.
i needed it to be.

This book brought up a lot of emotions for me. Reminder there is always that one person who has left a scar on our heart no matter how much we’ve moved on.

This was an incredible collection of poetry. 

The author told stories through their poems in such a stunning way I often had to pause to gather my thoughts. Some were gut wrenching, heartbreaking but always relatable. Beautiful imagery with words put together with such beauty. 

I loved the structure - with a few small illustrations or larger quotes scattered through the book helped break up the blocks of poems. The author is so talented and I’m excited to see what comes next for them.

Thank you to NetGalley for the advanced copy.

This collection spoke to me and my own experience being in a relationship that I could not walk away from despite the pain I endured. Heartbreaking and beautiful all at once. I really enjoyed this one.

Beautifully written and laid out. I absolutely love love stories and poetry. These stories transported me to another world of love and light and heartbreak. I felt like this book was speaking to me and for me. It was so beautifully written and resonated to my core. Highly recommend. I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.
