Just absolutely beautiful I don’t currently have much words blazed through it have a fully tabbed and annotated version and I love how irrevocable it was I need to read more of Neruda oh my this was a ride of beautiful poetry I can understand why people do not like him or his work art apart or aside from the artist this is stunning writing and a new favourite

Noted favourites: The light wraps you

The Morning is Full

I Remember You as You Were

Leaning into the Afternoons

We have Lost Even

Every Day You Play

Thinking, Tangling Shadows

Here I Love You

Girl Lithe and Tawny

Tonight I Can Write


All great but I loved these my favourites changes but I loved ‘The light Wraps you.’

“I remember you as you were”

“Here I love you”

“Tonight I can write “

And ‘leaning into the afternoons “

But I need to read more collections like these

Just adore them :)

I'm on a never ending quest to find poetry that works for me.

So pungent and harrowing. Poems that'll make you recall and reimagine the ones you fantasized, the punitive love affairs and heart-shattering breakups.

I've recorded an audiobook, just so that I can listen to my voice in sorrow and pain under natural unfiltered circumstances:
