The One that Got Away

By POETRY PLANET

Love is the most wonderful thing a poet can write about - yet it is the pain of loving that makes a poet great."

Born from the haunting melody of Katy Perry's song, this anthology gathers 68 poets from across the globe, each sharing their own intimate story of the love that touched their heart and then slipped away. From the sweet innocence of a first love to the aching wisdom of a soulmate found too late; from promises made beneath fruit trees to goodbyes spoken under moonlight - these poems weave together the universal truth: we do not only love to keep. Sometimes we love to remember.

Here are the roads we walked, the hearts we held, and the ones we had to let go. A collection of joy and sorrow, hope and healing - a reminder that love and pain are inseparable, and that because we have known loss, every new love becomes sweeter still.

May these pages bring comfort to the ailing heart, courage to the hopeful, and inspiration to all who still believe - no matter how many loves have walked away - our hearts are wide enough to always make room for one more.
