Under the Lemon Tree is the deconstruction of all the things you scream andcry when you learn to love. Free falling into addiction of affection; to hurt overand over again and do so for so long you look back and reflect on all the hurtand desperate attempts for affection that have fed you lessons to learn from.Under the Lemon Tree is hurtful because it has to be, because if love is anythingit’s the hurt we share with one another. This collection of poetry is the guidethrough the gentle games of control and care we play with one another. Theauthor’s personal memoir of holding hands with people he either shouldn’thave, or couldn’t have for as long as he had wanted to. Love is fickle and fragile.Under the Lemon Tree examines love from a perspective of 'that was then, Ifeel it now'; where the heartstrings of your past have already snapped. Ourhearts break sometimes, sometimes so badly the healing touch of love suddenlypulverizes it. Love is painful, but Under the Lemon Tree teaches us to care forwhat’s left of us. I wrote some of these when I was 13, I wrote some of theserecently, I hope you join me, Under the Lemon Tree.
