I Wrote This For You

Product Information

Again this poetry book is not for all, but compared to Lang Leav's Love and Misadventure I rather like this one. It is like peeking into my diary and reading all the words I am silently keeping or letters I never send. I Wrote This For You is wonderful because it can speak to so many people at so many different levels. Thomas, who together with photographer Jon Ellis, created the worldwide smash success I Wrote This For You, a collection of personal, anonymous poetry and photography. But the thing as a whole was just so much of the same, and it felt like the punch line to every single piece was 'for YOU'; I mean, even the title follows that formula.

Together with several new and exclusive poems that don't appear anywhere else, each chapter of I Wrote This For You focuses on a different facet of life, love, loss, beginnings and endings.Some of them do lack depth but it glorifies as we usually neglect the on-going small things around us. Sorry, we’re immigrating in about two weeks and moving a family of four across the Atlantic Ocean is completely unsurprisingly incredibly challenging. Being a hopeless romantic myself, I could relate to or at least imagine the emotions and images behind the simply-worded sentences. This audio project inspired by the original book weaves the poetry into a never-before heard holistic narrative.

The conceit of soulmates and hidden messages that drives these poems, songs, and musings is interesting, and the fact that it covers both the romantic beginnings and the crash and burn endings of a relationship was compelling. These words apply to everyone, the way this is written makes it feel like this is really just for you. Let’s put a couch on an island in the middle of the freeway and wave at everyone on their way to work. If this book, as well as the passages, are as popular as they've become then it says one thing about humans - we are much more similar than we believe.

I cannot state drawbacks of any poetry because it is coated with unknown layers so this one is for everyone who acknowledges the emotion - “LOVE”. May, Thrive by Arianna Huffington, Communication Arts, Design Indaba Magazine, Ad Vantage Magazine, bestadsontv.

I Wrote This For You" was my first read of his and it brought me to tears, had me smiling and hoping, but above all, it inspired me. Nearly 200 of the best, most relevant entries and photos from the I Wrote This For You project were published in print and as an e-book. If you are cynic then this is not for you because you'll just find that the prose and poetry came from a depressed person but I dig this kind of thing; it doesn't need to rhyme, just pure honest feelings. Thomas) is best known for the I Wrote This For You project, which he began in 2007 as a blog with photographer, Jon Ellis. The instant forced intimacy with someone I don't know and have never interacted with before and know nothing about due to the second person perspective, the instant disclosures, and the unhinged scifi and/or delusional perspective was incredibly creepy.It wasn't necessarily bad, but the subject matter and the way love was discussed just became super generic. How many hearts would have be invaded for the every reasons, if each time you said “I love you”, you meant it?

Dust Jackets are not guaranteed and when still present, they will have various degrees of tear and damage. Imagine that the douchey, fakely profound guy in your psych 101 class and the worst, equally fakely profound girl in your poetry class that your professor for some stupid reason thinks is a genius had a one night stand that resulted in a baby. What makes this quote understandable, to me, is that it shows you that you are not alone even when things seem to be that way. The Life And Death Of Most Of Us I believe this book is not for everyone and will only appeal to those who can relate to this kind of writing.This printed edition contains around 400 (I'm not sure, I haven't counted) entries from the I Wrote This For You project, including many from the first book, many entries that were written after the first book was published, and several things I wrote while I was away that only appear here in this book. I'm sure every single person on this planet has had moments in his or her life where things just don't work out the way they want them to. I like this kind of style to combine photography and literature because I also use it on my poems except the pictures are borrowed. Several of the poems that are remarkable for me is The Nature of my Body, The Video on the Way Down, The Trees That Decided Not To Die, and The World Needs More Lighthouses.
