Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Love Doesn't Hurt, Lovers DoLove Doesn't Hurt, Lovers Do is not a gentle book.It is a raw, unfiltered collection of poems and visuals about lust, love, betrayal, heartbreak, and growth - told through floetry: a fusion of spoken word, rhythm, and imagery.This book explores the paradox of love - how it can lift and destroy, heal and wound - and what remains when the illusion breaks. Each piece peels back the layers of intimacy: the fleeting highs, the crushing lows, and the quiet resilience that follows.What makes this collection different is its accountability.These poems do not only speak of what was done to her, but also of what she allowed, ignored, and contributed to. They are confessions as much as laments - a mirror held to both sides of love.This book is for the ones who weren't just hurt but who participated in their own undoing, and survived long enough to tell the truth about it.Love Doesn't Hurt, Lovers Do is a reminder of a truth often forgotten: love should never cost you yourself.Perfect for readers who love: - Poetry on love, heartbreak, resilience, and accountability- Black-and-white photography paired with verse- Intimate, emotionally honest storytelling that lingersFor readers drawn to writers such as Rupi Kaur, Yrsa Daley-Ward, and Nayyirah Waheed, but seeking something more confessional, embodied, and unflinching.If you have ever loved, lost, and dared to love again - this book is for you.
