Publisher's Synopsis
This collection of poetry captures the excitement and purity of love's initial stages-the tender, electric feeling of connection when two souls meet and ignite something deeper. It delves into the moment of first attraction, the thrill of discovery, and the vulnerability that comes with opening up to another person. It's a celebration of love's potential and its ability to awaken feelings of wonder, joy, and anticipation.
Shanice T Robinson dives deeper into love's complexities, as it moves beyond initial infatuation to a deeper, more nuanced bond. Here, her poetry explores the subtle and passionate beauty of intimacy-emotional, physical, and intellectual-as well as the challenges love faces as it evolves. This is where love starts to test itself, where misunderstandings arise, and where growth and compromise take center stage. This collection ends with a reflective piece, a meditation on how love-whether experienced in full or lost along the way-has shaped the speaker. It offers a sense of closure, but also an openness, as love itself is a dynamic force that can never truly be contained or defined.
