Singularity is a collection of modern poetry with illustrations that dives into the universal human experience of falling in love, heartbreak, and the pain of unrequited love. These poems are a reminder that you’re not alone in your pain. We’ve all felt the ache in our hearts as we watched someone we love walk out the door for the last time. Everyone has had a crush on someone that didn’t feel the same way. Being human is a beautiful experience, but sometimes it hurts.
This poetry collection focuses on the feeling of being single and how we share in similar feelings and how upon reflection a relationship costs us sometimes when writing, pieces of ourselves.
Some stand out poems to me were:
Habitually Late, about feeling yourself playing catch up to others your own age in life.
Self-esteem, about how you see yourself after a break up of a relationship to realise how you've changed.
What You Don't See, was a powerful poem about how anxiety can manifest and make you relive moment's over and over making you doubt yourself, thing's you do and say.
Writer, was such a relatable poem about coping with life from writing poetry and processing your feelings to empty your mind of everything and how it's just natural to you.
Multiverse, was a reflective poem that gets you thinking of how every choice you make in life could've led you to another path and future, another version of you different to you now and how you can endlessly wonder what if?
This was a great collection of reflective poems that will be sure to get you thinking.
