We Loved, Therefore We Lived, bravely introduces us to the idea, that you can both Love and be Loved by someone and the dynamic still bring forth pain (great pain, at that.) This is not because Love is imperfect, but that Love is being embodied by humans, whom as we all know, are filled with imperfections.
If you are a fan of Emily Bronte's book, Wuthering Heights, you should thoroughly enjoy this book, as
author, Melissa M. Combs, was heavily influenced by the work of Bronte, while writing this collection.
This collection is an assortment of both ill-fated, and soft and romantic love poems. Within the pages, there is a noticeable elegance, reminding readers to find beauty in the midst of their pain. Though reminiscent of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, it is also something entirely of it's own, combining both inspiration from The Victorian Era, as well as our current Era. Furthermore, this collection prompts the wounded reader to make something of their pain, which I believe is needed today more than ever. Young readers are oftentimes navigating the foreign territory of love and loss. This collection is meant to inspire that reader to step out of their stagnancy after loss and into the wisdom of transmuting their pain.
"Some love stories must be rewritten, if not for the sake of the lovers, than for the sake of fairytales. For the hope of all of humanity... you and I, we mustn't end this way."
