This collection of poems and short prose pieces grows out of modern dating and the wreckage of broken romances. Its pieces move through lost love, betrayal, low moods, and the way a woman's sense of her own body can be shaken by the people she trusts.

The book is divided into three parts, Holding On, Ouroboros, and Letting Go, which trace a loop rather than a straight line. The reader circles back to old pain before finding a way out of it. Throughout, the emphasis falls on learning to put oneself first and to value one's own worth over the approval of someone who has already left. Short and direct, the work will suit readers who enjoy the spare, confessional style of contemporary poets.
