Divided into four chapters, "After the Eventide" is a collection of poetry and prose that navigates through different stages in one's youth, thus growing up in an unsettling and unforgiving place.
It circles around relationships, giving too much until nothing is left, longing for an impossible thing, driving through confusion, encompassing between a melancholic and a euphoric moment back and forth, and more.
As love comes in myriad forms in different timelines, this book follows how bewitching, yet dreading the many forms of love can be in the lines of poetry and prose.
This isn't a story for the faint of heart.
This is a story about a girl who loved a boy.
A boy who couldn't love her back.
This is a story about the bitter, the sweet, betrayals, second chances, and redemption.
If your heart doesn't hurt by the end of this wreckage, then I haven't done my job properly.
