From the acclaimed author of I Find You in the Darkness , Alfa’s writing is at once deeply personal and universal―resulting in an emotive force that stays with you. This new edition of Abandoned Breaths includes an updated introduction and a brand-new chapter of modern poetry. Find respite, resilience, and rejuvenation from the moving poetry of Abandoned Breaths. There are words that need to be said. Buried beneath pride and fear. Rejection has suffocated their tenacity to bloom. So, they stay dormant and fester. Dwelling in the darkest and dusty corners of a crying soul. Unseen, yet felt. Not alive, but not dead. Abandoned breaths. Words that need to be said. -Alfa Review: Poems Written for All of Us - Whew. Alfa. I've followed Alfa for some time on various social media sites, and her touching poetry and anecdotes always pause my rapid scrolling. It's a blessing to have her work gathered in "Abandoned Breaths" her debut collection of poetry, quotes, and prose. You won't find explorations and studies of the world here, no observational poems about nature or food or architecture; what you find here are poems that explore the human heart and soul. Alfa is noted for her romantic discourses on love, love lost, empowerment, and self-discovery, and any person with a thread of sensitivity in them and anyone that's experienced the turmoil and bounty of love will find numerous pieces in "Abandoned Breaths" that resonate loudly and clearly. I don't know how many of these poems I shared with my wife, but I can say that it was a lot. And every time she echoed my own reactions, that these poems were written for us and our lives. What power that is for a poet! What power it is to hold words up to a reader so that they can see their own soul and their own story reflected back at them. If you've been meaning to set foot into the world of contemporary poetry, do yourself and your heart a favor, and start here. Bravo, Alfa. Review: Touched my soul - I found Alfa because a friend tagged me in a post on social media. The post brought me to tears 😢 I wondered if was the only one that would make my heart feel. Started following Alfa on all social sites, additionally i was looking for her posts, trying to figure out why and how a total stranger could be inside my damaged heart. When I received the book, I wanted to find just one poem that didn't bring to mind either a person or event in my life. How did she know me? Why was she writing about my life? I kept reading ... Found ONE that was so far from what I knew! ONE! I then asked my husband to browse the book and see what he got. After a bit, he announced the was one that he could relate to. ONE! You'll never guess .. yep, we had picked the same ONE. After further discussion we agreed it's your perception of what is written, and how you choose to look at remember your life. Everyone suffers heartache, with one always being a beacon of pain, calling you to remember the tormented and tattered pieces of a relationship more than the positive. Alfa walked me thru some bad stuff, which reminded me in order to move forward in a healthy life, not only must I be a new person. I must shed the old nasty stuff. To totally take off old feelings so that I don't cover the new hope and positive stuff with garbage. Today I read from beginning again, this time, I knew that was then. This is now. This book not only touched every mental, emotional and spiritual side of me, but I'd helping me move from angry pissed off woman, to a more peaceful place. I haven't finished so I can't tell you where it ends. Only that it does. 💜💚 Alfa 💜💚 ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #1,071,189 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #2,247 in Love Poems #2,571 in Poetry by Women | | Customer Reviews | 4.9 out of 5 stars 387 Reviews | ## Images ![Abandoned Breaths: Revised and Expanded Edition: Poems - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81sKh1YK4oL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Poems Written for All of Us *by N***L on August 19, 2017* Whew.

I would wholeheartedly recommend this true genius of work from an exceptionable talent. Alfa is no freshperson (freshman) in life. She touches nerves that need sparking to awaken our lives. Great gift idea, or give yourself a treasure. Once you read Alfa, like me, you become addicted (in a good way); it becomes a habit, as I think: "Have I had my Alfa today?" Like a daily vitamin, she's just that good. I would stand in the rain to get her next offering, but I can order online, like you. But please let me give you a friendly warning: If you don't like great poetry, if you don't want your heart touched, your mind stimulated,or make positive things happen, then turn away from Alfa's book: "Abandoned Breaths". Because IF you do get it, sit back, enjoy the most enjoyable, beneficial poetic ride you can take.
