there were some lines in this that were pretty good, riveting even. but as a whole the collection just felt really redundant. often the titles were more intriguing than the actual poem.

ROMANCE
i have heard it said
that love
turns people
soft
but i have
never been
more
brutal

UNTITLED
i never wanted
to belong
to anyone
but myself

here i am

i hate it and it makes my heart wet

ROMANCE
people say
i love you

i don't care
and i am never tired

EVERYBODY THINKS THAT THEY ARE DIFFERENT BUT NOBODY IS DIFFERENT
the poor thing
i hope they say
she was born
with so much
venom in her heart

OUT OF YOUR LOVE
i
don't
know
what
would
have
happened
if
what
happened
hadn't
happened

it happened

so many times

I DON'T CARE IF IT LASTS
eros betrays
hate beguiles
love goes out

I THOUGHT LOVE WAS A PLACE BUT LOVE IS A PULL
when i think of you
i do not think
of you
i think
of anything
but you

ROMANCE or THE END
love can be a lie, but it is also always true

The one star is for the cover bc everything else was pretty bad…. Maybe I am not sophisticated enough to understand these poems but they made me feel nothing except slightly confused
