ABOUT THE BOOK: UNSPOKEN : A collection of Love Notes offers measured doses of cupidity that elevate experiences of the heart into perfectly rendered verses that resonate, linked by a unity of theme – love. Love struts down these pages in all its elegance and form – given, received, accepted, rejected, ignored, fantasized, lost, found, bitter, sweet, bitter-sweet, and even disappears with no prescription as no description. Sometimes, we get buried in our different thoughts in love. And most times, we can’t express in words these heartfelt feelings and thoughts. Yet at times, we feel the urge to engrave those special moments of solitude, those special moments unspoken into words to be read, analyzed, digested, and manipulated. UNSPOKEN is lyrical, exuberant, and sensual as a tropical night swirling in jazz. With its effervescent lyricism, it expresses the unspoken moments in such unique defining ways that keep the flame burning and makes it hard not to be swept away by the urgency of the author’s language; thus, packing a riveting intensity that equals only the passion of the unspoken.
