"do you think this longing will haunt us for a lifetime?"

'holy ground' is the fifth collection from the best-selling poet Catarine Hancock. This short but sweet collection takes the reader through a kind and gentle love story. Split into five different sections, 'holy ground' covers the sensation of falling in love and discovering one's sexuality (i. the love we had); the anxieties and fears that accompany being in a relationship (ii. the fears i felt); the inevitable way life pulls people apart (iii. the way we broke); the unique heartbreak and grief one experiences when a good love comes to an end (iv. the grief i carry); and the gratitude you feel that you ever got to know it all (v. the gratitude i have).

Tender, reflective, and understanding, this collection is for anyone who has ever loved a person that finally showed them how beautiful love could really be. A person that they had to let go of, anyway. A person that, in another life, they'd be with forever.
