This work addresses the essence of sensitivity, epitomising what it means to be "the hurting kind."

The Themes

Throughout the collection, themes of empathy, personal anguish, and interconnectedness resonate deeply. The poems invite readers to reflect on:

  • The bonds that unite us with nature
  • The emotional landscapes of our personal experiences
  • The shared pain that transcends generations

The Writing Style

The author employs a lyrical and evocative writing style, weaving vivid imagery with introspective musings. Each piece offers a unique lens through which to view our existence, encouraging readers to engage with their own emotions and relationships.

Literary Merit
