The Truth of You: Poetry About Love, Life, Joy, and Sadness (The Souls Trilogy)

Iain S. Thomas

Enjoyment: Quality: Characters: Plot:

This is the truth of you. Because you are all I see. Because you are all I breathe. Because when I cannot find you, I am lost. Because when I’m with you, I am found. Because you have the fire of the universe in you, and sometimes you forget. So this book is here to remind you. Dear You,   I want you to know that I see you.     I want you to know that even if no one else does, even if you are a ghost in this bookshop, or just the static floating across the screen of your computer, wherever you’re reading this, I see you.   I see you in the dark and I see you in the grey. I see you as a story, as words I have spoken or may yet speak. Maybe only in a memory or a dream.   I see your hands and your arms and your body and your legs and your face and I see what you have been and what you will be. I see you and in looking at you, I want you to know that whoever you’ve had to be to survive all this, I will not look away.   I want you to know that there’s a space inside this book for you.   So if you have the time and the inclination, you can sit here with me, just for a while.   And perhaps between us, we can see everything that matters.   -pleasefindthis
