Closure by Valeria Abelli

This poetry collection flows in lyrical prose and snippets of a relationship revealed as it falls apart, doubt's that appear and actions that leave you questioning the truth of the relationship. Unspoken Truths, about how friends become lovers then return to strangers in an odd cycle from openness to vulnerability to unity to severing ties was beautifully heartbreaking in the way it was written. Where Were You Going, was again, really relatable as my ex too had a red car and my stomach too drops seeing one still and wondering if he chooses her now still after losing me and the endless cycle of questions a simple trigger can remind you of. It was a beautiful collection of poetry that gets you thinking, inspired and reflecting on your own experience in relationships too as well as the fun of continuing on the lines as well feeling inspired to finish the poem or song from the sentences proffered.
