Love’s Cycle by Pablo Camacho
About Love’s Cycle by Pablo Camacho:
If you like books like Lang Leav’s Love & Misadventure or Robert M. Drake’s Beautiful Chaos, then you will love this book. Love’s Cycle is a beautiful collection of prose and poetry that explores the highs of love and the lows of loss. Love can often be observed in several cyclical phases. First, there is the reaching, the yearning, and the longing to feel and be felt. Then it’s the grasping. It’s that moment when you feel endless, infinite, and intoxicated by bliss. And finally, it’s when some are forced to let go. It’s when the world says, “It’s time for another soul to have a turn.” It’s when you, as a lover, must accept that not everything lasts forever.
In Love’s Cycle, Pablo Camacho takes the vulnerability, passion, and rawness of human expression and puts it into honest words. Sometimes there is sadness. But often, there is also hope.
