Love's Prisoner

About the Book

Shameka realized her first self-published book ‘Read In Between the Lines and Within the Margins’, was only a springboard for more pieces to come. ‘Love’s Prisoner’ is the result of the inspiration she found in the most complex, awarding, confusing, and passionate topic expressed; Love. The author wrote constantly on the subject with the intent to assure others that they are not alone in the ‘Prison’ of love. This book not only comprises of poems, but monologues, soliloquys, and other pieces alike, expressed in such a way that deviates from the author’s comfort zone. Because Shameka used various types and elements of writing, one will experience the heightened expression of every aspect of love, and lack thereof, including heart break, passion, hate, sex, loneliness, self-love, void, and naturally true love. Like Shameka’s first self-publication, the pieces expressed within are relatable to every mind, but most importantly, every heart.
