This is a series of short love poems.
VERDICT:
REVIEW:
I love you with all my beingThe author's creative use of words and expressions aren't easily described. The style reminds me of other prominent Poets such as Rupi Kaur andNayyirah Waheed. I wish the volume was longer to experience more of the author's voice. I hoped to read more about the authors experience as a immigrant. The immigrant experience was alluded to but not fleshed out.
but loving you
is not my being.
the painI would recommend this to readers who enjoy short stanza poems. The author explores healing, grief, relationships and writing throughout this volume. I will read more writing by this author in the future. I expect with time the author's talent will expand and and develop further.
you received as a gift
wrapped in a shiny paper
that said, I love you!,
you re-gifted to me
carefully wrapped in a shinier paper
that said, I love you more!
I received a copy of this book from Bahar Books in exchange for an honest review.
