Wash Me Away is a moving collection of short prose poems reflecting on relationships, sexuality, heartbreak, and the process by which we move on from messy relationships. Straddling the line between essay and poem, these pieces explore the nuance of the painful experience of heartbreak-a topic that is, sadly, ever-relatable.
What does it mean to know someone as well as you think you know yourself? How do you navigate heartbreak when you don't want to let go, but know that you have to? How do we find ourselves again when we have given all of ourselves to someone else?
Fans of both love poetry and breakup stories will relate to these expressive, vivid pieces, which are steeped in powerful emotions and full of hauntingly beautiful imagery. Whether you have just lost a true love or are looking back fondly on those days, Wash Me Away is here to take you to the edge of the water...and bring you home again.
