This poetry collection describes the state of melancholy, yet it draws into the state of grief as well. Sorrow is the longing after something specific which we lost. Melancholy is the longing after something which we never had because it can never exist. This collection of philosophical poetry describes the macro aspect of the truth longing for humanity, and the micro aspect of the human grieving the disconnection from a loved one. The opaque symbolism touches an emotional nerve, and the reader discovers how she/he truly feels when confronted with the power of harm and the concept of having nothing to lose. The question that remains is, can you be saved? Can humanity be saved? In the end the biggest obstacles are the ones we place in the road ourselves.
