This is a deeply personal, moving account of one man coming to terms with love and the continued failures of his relationships. An appealing and empathetic collection of poetry that delves into human motivations and crises without sensationalism. One of the most perfect, human examples of poetry every written. You will both ache for and fear the next page. These poems are fraught, fast-moving, tense, full of alternating hope and sadness. It amplifies the daily struggle of what it means to be put through the sausage grinder one too many times. Thomas Michael has taken his greatest pain and laid it out so touching, so unsentimental, and so clear. This book is a powerful testament to love, to heartache and to poetry.

His words are deeply affecting, beautiful, and poignant.
