Here you'll find a son's gratitude for an old man's quiet affection, a husband's vow to his wife, the dizzy nerves of meeting someone new, and the bone-deep joy of coming home to the people who matter most. These are poems about wanting, waiting, and holding on.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThen the collection turns. \u003cstrong\u003eHate\u003c\/strong\u003e burns hotter and darker, giving voice to heartbreak, resentment, grief, and the ugly thoughts most people keep hidden.

It does not pretend that the heart is a simple thing.
