This Is Our Secret (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798218232559)

Eric Williamson's first book in his signature poetry chapbook series breathes with desperation and longing while buoyed in hope and forgiveness. This Is Our Secret, Book 1 in a 3-book arc is a great jumping-on point to this poet, writer, and comic book creator's work.

The poems traverse the bittersweet terrain of love and heartache, from passionate intimacy to painful dissolution. Through candid snapshots and internal monologues, the collection unveils our paradoxical yearnings for both freedom and belonging. The verses give voice to the turbulence beneath seeming calm, reminding us that no matter how we fracture, our shared humanity persists.

Raw yet comforting, these poems whisper wisdom into the shadows of our inner lives. Let this collection be the diary of your own heart - affirming that even when our attempts at love fall short, redemption is nonetheless possible.

"Eric Williamson's poems take us on a ride through beginnings and endings, moments of both tenderness and despair. The author strikes a balance in this collection - that hard-to-pin-down variety of styles hanging together as a cohesive whole. It keeps the reader engaged, wondering a bit about what's next, but also comfortable that the journey is taking them somewhere worthwhile. This Is Our Secret offers us an intimate view of moving in, moving out, and moving on."
