Should I tell you the truth and risk losing you, or should I continue not saying how I feel and risk losing myself?
From the author of the #1 Amazon contemporary poetry bestseller The Moon, The Tide, and All I Tried comes a poetry collection that explores the raw, often agonizing friction between loving someone completely and needing to remain honest to yourself.
The Love I Give is a visceral account of unrequited love, the quiet sacrifices we make in the name of connection, and the resilience required to stay true to your own reality when someone else's feelings don't match your own. It covers the weight of lingering memories, the ache of being just friends with the person you see as your life partner, and the complex journey of navigating affection through a neurodivergent lens.
Unfiltered, literal, and at times sharply honest, this is for anyone who has given their whole heart to someone whose love doesn't match their own, who has sacrificed their own needs to keep the peace, or is finally ready to demand the truth-even if it's from themselves.
