Every Word You Cannot Say

Product Information

Iain Thomas is my favourite writer. Author. Poet. He honestly seems to be an advocate for self-love, for loving others, for recognising good from bad and good from great, for love, full stop. He seems to be an advocate for enjoying whatever it is you find in this world that you enjoy. I enjoy his work, more than I’m sure any language can help me spell out, and yet each time I try. But some part of you knows, the truth about the words you cannot say is that they only hurt until you say them. They only hurt until the person who needs to hear them, hears them. Because we are human, and the closest we've ever come to showing each other who we really are, and how we love, is with words. of 5 stars 2 of 5 stars 3 of 5 stars 4 of 5 stars 5 of 5 stars Every Word You Cannot Say by Iain S. Thomas It’s like everything inside me, everything I have ever wanted to say when my father told me I wouldn’t succeed because I was depressed, when my mother told me to leave her house, when I was the talk of the household and I couldn’t find my voice, when I was bleeding and nobody said anything. Iain Thomas binds a beautiful book of self-love, anger, purpose and silences that we can’t shake. I’ve read his previous books and there’s a running theme between them, a similarity that would otherwise be overdone but it works for his poems. This collection was exactly what the title promised: every word you can not say. Everything you’ve wanted to say but couldn’t. Every emotion you’ve felt and it couldn’t explain. Every hurt you experienced and couldn’t talk about.

I know that, sometimes, you wish someone would just say the words you needed to hear because, sometimes, you don’t even know what those words are.”This work seems to have a theme of finding yourself, accepting who you are, and not being afraid to open yourself to the world. Getting hurt is part of life, messing up is part of life, wanting to be alone at times is part of life; but so is being there when it's important, being brave even when you think you're not, trying again and again and again each day, and being open to all the joys and good the world holds. I recognised the author through his previous writing that enticed me, but unfortunately, fell short to entertain me. ay this book find the person it needs to. May they find every word they were looking for.* **I know you don’t want to talk sometimes. Sometimes because it hurts and sometimes because you’re just not supposed to talk about what you want to talk about. Sometimes it can be hard to say, “this is beautiful,” when no one else can see what you see. Or, “Here, this is where the pain is.” But some part of you knows, the truth about the words you cannot say is that they only hurt until you say them. They only hurt until the person who needs to hear them, hears them. Because we are human, and the closest we’ve ever come to showing each other who we really are, and how we love, is with words.

Thomas – eBook Details I recommend this book to anyone and everyone who’s been through a hardship. Who has ever been uncomfortable being in their own skin. Now listen: You are made of good things. You are capable of incredible things. You are a song the universe sings itself, in every color it can imagine. Some parts are sad. Some parts are happy. Every part of the song, is a part of you. Listen. Listen to the sound of the universe.”

Bila dilihat secara umum, rangkaian kata-kata Thomas tidak hanya indah mempesona tetapi juga lembut menyentuh batin. Mungkin ciri khas ini yang membuatnya pernah masuk dalam nominator Goodreads Choice Award untuk puisi terbaik. Ia pernah pula duduk sebagai direktur kreatif di beberapa brand besar seperti Nike dan Levi’s. Bila anda ingin menjanjikan harapan yang indah, sementara kenyataan faktualnya tidak seperti itu, Thomas memberi anda tawaran seperti ini:From the bestselling author of the Whiskey, Words, and a Shovel series comes this poetic reminder of women's strength. I know you don’t want to talk sometimes. Sometimes because it hurts and sometimes because you’re just not supposed to talk about what you want to talk about. Sometimes it can be hard to say, “this is beautiful,” when no one else can see what you see. Or, “Here, this is where the pain is.” But some part of you knows, the truth about the words you cannot say is that they only hurt until you say them.

So I’m going to try to say to you here, what I wish you’d say to me too. Please. Sometimes, you don't think you deserve goodness. But, I promise you, we all have things we think we don't deserve. ”

It's a beautiful poetry collection about life and how to navigate through it. Sometimes we're caught up in the midst of all the struggles and sadness of life that we forget to breathe. And on the days we forget to do as little as breathe, and when we need a nudge to keep pushing, poetry books like this, come in handy. I love that these poems spoke to me, the humanity of me, to remind me if I have forgotten that I am who I say I am. And not whom everybody wants me to be, or believe I am. Read moreI was granted an e-ARC of this book by the publisher via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. This book is a work of art and the beauty inside the book is not just about the visuals. The words are so true and they speak to me on so many levels about different emotions I feel. There is a special kind of sadness that can only be found in the confusion between who you think you are and who you think other people want you to be.§” I know you don’t want to talk sometimes.
