You are holding in your hands a lot of hope and heartbeat in paperback. The ink and the blanks within these pages have stories of their own. Within these covers, is a collection of poems that resonate with delicate emotion, innocence, guile, intricacies of love and hate, desire and longing, darkness and sarcasm in hearts that are busy surviving hurt and heartbreak. This attempts to weave a couple of gorgeous silk threads into the intricate tapestry of the human mind, love, hate, desire, and the enigmatic nuances of life as we live it. There are threads of darkness and light that weave an ingenious and vivid mosaic of human experience. Each poem attempts an unveiling of the many complex and complicated layers beneath the surface of ordinary existence, sometimes illuminating shadows that lurk within the recesses of the soul with thick and dark metaphorical imagery. From separation, longing, crude passion, taboo, to the searing intensity of hatred and all things wicked, of stripping bare pretences of expression and narratives to being descriptions of instances of this life and beyond, these verses can be an unsettling spread of human emotion served with unflinching honesty and a generous dollop of raw vulnerability. Exploring themes of longing, passion, and the relentless pursuit of meaning, this book teases readers into confronting the complexities of their heart and mind. Allowing them to make peace with them.

In striving to capture what it means to be human - the flaws, the passions, the yearning for connection in a world fraught with darkness and uncertainty, this book can be unsettling. It can be provocative, evocative and scandalous at the same time. Bare attempts to be a profound exploration of the human condition - identifying and illuminating the rot hidden in the depths of the soul, the resurfacing of all things taboo and the beautiful ugly that is skin deep.
