The mistake lies in that here you will find a collection of poetry which is at times light-hearted. More often, however, you will find yourself stumbling along an aching, snarling and collapsing labyrinth of words which involve heartbreak, identity crisis, the sort of mental health that can be described as "poor", and worst of all. romantic ideas. This collection is part love-story, eulogy and existential scavenger hunt. Mostly it is a harsh reminder that being human is far more playful than anyone would like to admit.

If you've ever fallen in love, fallen apart, or fallen into the trap of wondering who you really are when no one is looking, as far as you know, this collection is waiting for you.
