There's only so many bad dates, swiping and rejections one can handle before exhaustion sets in. And the cycle starts again. Articulating what the search for love can really be like without sounding cliched is a challenge. In this episode I've chosen to share a recent moment of creative flow that spilled onto the page. it rhymes like a poem but reads like something more raw, a bit like poetry slam (?!). I hope it connects and expresses how you or someone you know might be feeling whilst on the journey for love.
