The Nectar of Pain is a collection of poetry and prose born from the pain of love and loss. This collection reflects what many of us experience after enduring a painful heartbreak. While there may be stages of healing, the true struggle lies in cleansing yourself of the pain day by day, hour by hour, and second by second. Healing is not as predictable as we would like it to be; we may take ten steps forward one day and twenty steps back the next. As we walk this journey together, some poems will address you, some will address the one who caused the pain, and some will address myself, yourself, and ourselves.
