More Than Words

By Lauren Kramer

How Did You Know?
Thought it might have been written on my head.
But you looked a little deeper instead.
When we spoke; you would stare deep into my eyes.
And did those things that made me realize.
That you know me better than anyone can ...

In her poetry compilation More Than Words, Lauren Kramer shares her poignant personal journey through what she describes as the three stages of lovelove granted, love denied, and love relinquished.

Kramers verse explores the experiences of love: the taste of a kiss is as sweet as the scent of a summer rose, the moment when someone leaves without a goodbye, the pain of the denial of love, and the lover with the ability to break down walls and see straight into your heart. As Kramer ranges through the joys of new love, the insecurities of unreturned affection, and the despair that accompanies ending a relationship, she creates a safe, reassuring place where no one ever feels alone in their feelings.

With an inspired, relatable style, Kramer provides an introspective glimpse into the changing seasons of the heart, as she celebrates the powerful emotion of love.
