Abstract

A collection of poems centered on the theme of the paradoxical nature of love. Within love are oppositional tensions that produce pain as well as joy. This collection explores what it means to live with a heart awakened by love - one that is made whole by being broken. The poems are written in free verse with a simple structure that often takes the form of stanzas. As a whole, this work is an invitation to find deeper meaning in life.
