Catarine Hancock

A look into the process of recovering after a particularly bad love, sometimes i fall asleep thinking about you is a collection of poetry on the feeling of never getting closure, that lingering longing you still get even when you know you shouldn't, and how it feels to finally be able to say, "I have finally let you go," after years of struggling to find the words.

Sometimes I Fall Asleep Thinking about You

Shannon O’Connor 

Once again Hancock writes a beautiful collection about relationships. She uses her poetry almost as a letter to a past lover, in her own way of saying goodbye. Having followed her since she was self published, it is great to see what can be called a conclusion to this relationship. She creates stunning lines, "I cannot handle a love that I have to kick start every morning", "when your hold on me faltered, so did your mask. and once it slipped, there was no way for you to put it back on". Some of my favorite poems were on pages 16, 34, 37, 40, 81, 115, and 135.
