Love-ish
Poems on Something Like It
This collection doesn't romanticise love, it examines it with unguarded honesty. From the vulnerable plea of "Dear Heart" to the firm boundaries of "Spare Me The Poetry," these poems navigate the full spectrum of connection and disconnection, desire and disappointment, hope and healing.
Here you'll find the hunger for authentic connection ("I'm craving something real"), the struggle with mixed signals ("If You Really Wanted To Go"), and the hard-won wisdom of knowing your worth ("This heart right here, she knows her worth"). These are poems written in the aftermath of pretending everything was fine, learning the difference between love and the things we call love.
Raw and unfiltered, this collection speaks to anyone who has ever had to choose themselves, set boundaries, or learn that sometimes the kindest thing you can do is walk away. It's about the courage to be vulnerable while maintaining dignity, and the strength found in saying "I am enough."
How do we define it?
Who created it?
We can only utter
what we imagine it to be.
...
"I love you, because…" What?
Are my reasons not good enough?
...
When I show you love,
I love too much.
When I refrain and hold back,
I love too little.
...
How do love, love?
In what measure?
To what degree?
