I'm going to start off by saying that the cover is absolutely gorgeous.

In a similar style to Rupi Kaur, Beau Taplin writes beautiful and hauntingly deep poems on a wide variety of topics from soul mates to heartbreak, the wonders of the universe and so much more. There were so many poems that I found myself stopping to really think about it and questioning well what if? Others seemed as if Taplin himself tapped (I understand that is a horrible pun - I'm sorry) into my brain and put ideas I do not know how to explain into words.

The poems are rather short -although, there are a few longer ones- but they really pack a lot of thought into them. Throughout the book, I felt the sense that narrator (or author) was trying to send out a message to someone they love and/or lost. As if they had that special person, but it just did not work and so they had to regretfully let that person slip from their hands yet still have a small role in each other's lives. It felt like a mini story.

I know this may not be everybody's cup of tea (since there are different views of what counts as poetry), but I found the writing and book format similar to Milk and Honey. So, if you enjoyed that, you will enjoy this. I found a new favorite poet and I cannot wait to discover his other works.
