A gorgeous book of poetry, illustrating the complexities of life, love, relationships, grief and how one learns to let go, embrace new opportunities and love.

Above all, this book is about love, how one experiences it, how it can hurt to let go, and the things we do to ourselves and each other, because we love. And it's about appreciating the love we have, and not taking it for granted.

A beautiful poetic debut by Barbara Lally, I look forward to more.

so good!

I lost Myself, Unmoving and A facade

My three favorite pieces, she put words to how I’ve felt over the last year. Easy to read and relatable. This book speaks to the frailty and humanity we all go through at different points in our lives. Love and loss, growth and introspection.
