    About this ebook

    Love and Longing is a collection of poems about relationships, self-awareness, desire and intimacy. These poems unveil the heartache and passion that comes with ones quest to find love. The author shares personal memories of relationships and their shortcomings. And when love wasn't present, the author created it. The dream of being in love with someone you can share your life with was turned in to poetry, and Love and Longing was created.
