The poetry journal Heartbreak Love by Ricky Liorti looks into various dimensions of love, categorized into four thematic sections. Hopeless Love examines feelings of loneliness and yearning, leaning into hope and resilience in the quest for connection. Endless Love celebrates the joy and discovery that comes from finding true love, speaking on its transformative nature. Tortured Love reflects on the emotional pain and disruption resulting from heartbreak, shining a light on longing and regret, while gently pushing for resilience and self-discovery. Finally, True Love focuses on the journey of self-love following a breakup, discussing personal growth and self-acceptance as crucial elements for future happiness and relationships. Through these ideas, Liorti presents a multifaceted exploration of love and its impact on the human experience.

Heartbreak Love: Guided Poetry Journal by Ricky Liorti is a thoughtful and really unique formula for addressing love's transformative power through the lens of guided poetry. Liorti's journal invites readers to pull from their own experiences by pairing redolent prompts with beautiful poetry. I loved the mixture provided and found the writing to be heartfelt and intelligent, the standout to me being the essence of love at first sight, the magic of shared moments, and the comfort of companionship. The structured prompts are so helpful in allowing readers to incorporate their feelings to best connect and heal. With its heartening language and practical layout, this journal not only serves as a creative outlet but also as a companion in the journey of understanding love in all its forms. Very highly recommended.
