We Loved, Therefore We Lived: poetry & prose
"In all of my attempts,
I am certain I will one day sink heaven
into hell, for you.
Make them both uncomfortable and ashamed
of their ways.
No more “holier than thou”.
No more prideful war games. No longer, our love forbidden."
We Loved, Therefore We Lived, bravely introduces us to the idea, that you can both Love and be Loved by someone and the dynamic still bring forth pain (great pain, at that.) This is not because Love is imperfect, but that Love is being embodied by humans, whom as we all know, are filled with imperfections.
If you are a fan of Emily Bronte's book, Wuthering Heights, you should thoroughly enjoy this book, as
author, Melissa M. Combs, was heavily influenced by the work of Bronte, while writing this collection.
