Love Lies

By SaDee Hodge

Love Lies is a raw, lyrical collection of poetry that explores the fragile space between love and fear, safety and self-protection.

These poems live in the tension of loving someone while being afraid to admit it out loud-of wanting closeness while still bracing for loss. They move through trauma, longing, and emotional rebuilding, where intimacy can feel both grounding and terrifying, and connection forces old wounds to resurface.

At its core, this collection is about what it means to fall for someone quietly, carefully, and imperfectly-while learning how to stay present when every part of you is used to leaving first.

Honest and deeply vulnerable, Love Lies captures the moment when love is real, but saying it feels like the hardest truth of all.
