When He Leaves You by Michaela Angemeer
Starting from childhood venturing through life from dealing with parents separating and love breaking down, to finding love with someone for the first time and experiencing the relationship fall apart over time this book was another moving collection of short poetry.
I found the most relatable poem in this selection, around the theme and idea of chasing bodily perfection with the author asking if she was smaller would he have stayed after losing her appetite after he left.
I found it heart breaking and so relatable as someone who struggle with anorexia as a teen and been through a rough heartbreak too, I can't lie when I say I have felt exactly the same way.
The take away from this book is to use it as a companion through heartbreak to realise the issues if he leaves are with him, though it may not feel like it, he would stay if he wanted despite you loving him without it being reciprocal you're better off keeping yourself happy l, someone else will appreciate and accept you for being you, wonderful as you are!
