Poetry on Love, Lust & Loss: Vol. 2 - Love Lust Loss Shonel Jackson

VOLUME 2: This book is first and foremost a part of my diary. It just so happens to be in poetry form. In the moments when my emotions are the most intense and to the surface, writing them down like this is how I sort out what's happening with me. Putting pen to paper and noting what I'm feeling in the same moment that I'm experiencing it, I find, helps me to tap into elements of it, which I might not be able access in the same way again.

This is a series in two volumes, and explores elements of LOVE, LUST & LOSS, that I've experienced and endured. Names have been omitted to protect the innocent, so to speak, or guilty, as the case may be. But, as you'll see, specific individuals will be easily identifiable.

Writing these, in moments I wrote them, was painful at times. But I hope that you'll be able to identify with the twenty-something girl I was here, who was trying to navigate and battle with the ebb and flow of LOVE, the pleasure and torment of LUST and the devastating impact of LOSS... (of love).
