Enter a lyrical journey from yearning to love through poetry. The road leads one woman from idealized dreaming to heartachingly unrequited feelings and back into the world again, always searching, always hoping for that one special person.
L. R. Camacho's slender, eloquent collection of poetry is a record of this journey. Each poem stands on its own as a penetrating examination of love's many facets, but when taken together, the verses form a deeply moving narrative.
Along the way, Camacho's nameless heroine encounters the heartache and inspiration that are twin aspects of love. Despair, jealousy, passion, joy, and longing dance across the page to an often-bittersweet tune that finally rises in a crescendo of triumph and bliss.
Camacho's poems focus on LGBT+ relationships, but the subject matter encompasses the human experience of love, serving as a reminder that whom you're driven to love is deeply personal, and no one should ever be judged for it. It's a message she hopes all who read her work embrace, because at the end of the day, love is all we have.
