A journey of love-lost. An awakening of the mind and heart from darkness and blindness to understanding.
Have you ever lost something so precious and so dear that it feels like something has been ripped away from your life and will never return? In other words, have you ever only truly appreciated something after it was already gone? This is the struggle of our protagonist who has lost the love of his life and is now stuck in a cycle of unrequited love. The beautiful girl, Izzy, has made the decision to cut ties in their relationship; however, the man left behind still believes there is more to their story and that this is not their end. Each poem tells a pivotal piece of the story and moves forward through time, chronicling our protagonist's journey. This story is the pure truth of the author's life.
As the protagonist, I want Izzy back in the most serious of ways. However, it becomes apparent that our demise was meant to happen. How else could I have stopped my habitual viscous behavior? How else could I have calmed down into peace and contentment? Without truly understanding that love is the most perfect gift in life, how could I truly appreciate Izzy and be satisfied with the little things?
Come take an emotional and spiritual journey with me, walking through dark themes of sex, drugs, wrongful actions and terrifying memories, down the path of my life to see the enlightening truth at the end of the tunnel. Adalay Sunrise offers a tale of love-lost that brings to light the truth of a real couple's relationship through a series of sonnets. Insightful, energy-stirring and uplifting, this collection from Stephen Carr has a unique flow and is easily read, but offers much to analyze and interpret. I invite you to open up to a new perspective by engrossing yourself in the raw truth and take advantage of the rare opportunity to immerse into the conscience of another human being.
