A review by kazuchuu
the mermaid's voice returns in this one by Amanda Lovelace

3.0

this is for the ones with
starfall hearts and blown glass eyes

this is for the ones with
broken hands and unbroken ties

this is for the ones with
wild hair and ghosts in their lungs

this is for the ones with
unsung mothers and war on their tongues

this is for the ones with
bruised peach skin and fear-flayed nails

this is for the ones with
hummingbird hearts and thighs that tell tales

of nights they found love and nights to forget
of days passed in silence, words not to regret

- i am yours.

I'm never entirely sure about how I feel after reading Amanda Lovelace's books. They're very empowering, which is mostly why I like them, but otherwise, I don't really have a lot of strong feelings towards them.

3/5
