I Wrote This For You

This book is just amazing. The best way, I think, to describe it, is beautifully depressing. This is more than a book. It is every thought in my mind and all the things I've yet to think. It's everything I've wanted to say, all the words I've never spoken. I've never read anything so beautiful and pure. This says everything, while saying nothing at all. It says that everything will be OK, no matter the circumstance. And it says that nothing is impossible, as long as you believe it. Love is a tragedy and this book just captures everything about that. It shows how beautiful love can be, as well. It just captures everything in such a powerful and fragile way. It is the essence of life itself and I feel like these words have changed me and given me hope. I feel like if I hadn't read this, then I'd just be empty.

I absolutely love this book. It's creative, poetic, heartbreaking, romantic and flat out interesting. After nearly every page I would stop and just say "Woww..". I love the layout, I love the photo's, I love the detail and I'm obsessed with the writing. This is one of those books that you go back to after a while and re-read and it's as if you're reading it for the first time. Definitely recommend. Keep in mind it's short, to the point, and the "chapters" are more like paragraphs or snippets but it works for this book.

I think it's very difficult to say it doesn't resemble a tumblr dashboard or some hipster wannabe poetry that's beens roaming the Internet but in my opinion it's got something more. I guess I'm sentimental but I really think there's something in here for everyone and personally I buy a book for the sake of feeling something and not reading for the sake of how wonderful constructed the prose is or how many intricately embedded insights the author showed expertise in. It was nice to read and I felt glad after I read it. I must say the photography is a little disappointing but there were some very beautiful photographs in there that did stand out. Overall I think both the writing and photography is good but not quite great. Perfect for a sentimental touch.

I read the sample because it was a suggestion in one of my favorite books, thinking it's a good time waster until my next goal. I also assumed it would be about as good reading a pageless book. That wasn't the case. This book moved me, and moved through me. Pages full of poetic emotions and heartfelt experiences pushed together to prove one simple thing: no one is ever alone in anything. It inspired me to do things I'd never thought of doing, and comforted me from things I had believed would ultimately kill me. This book is worth a read, even if you're not the type to read this kind of book. I wasn't.

I was attracted to this piece by the cover and the cheesy title. I came across it during a point in my life when I was emotionally and mentally exhausted and just fed up with everything. I hoped that something in this book was going to reach out to me and shake me from my fog, and it didn't disappoint. I loved this work for its stunning and sometimes strange images placed between all of the challenging, thought-provoking and quietly beautiful poems carefully put together here. Sometimes the poems are soft and tender, and sometimes they are jarring and elusive, but always they are moving in one way or another. This collection is going to stay with me for a long time, and I am so glad I made the purchase.

It's a fantastic of what i guess you can call a new age poetry. I'm not exactly a reader of poetry, so if i'm wrong well whatever. It isn't what you'd read in high school that much is for sure. But I've read once that every page feels like it was literally directed at you. More often than not it really does. Sometimes you can read one and have no clue what it is about. Well all i can say is then that one wasn't meant for help you out. However excellent read, I've been a long time reader of the site. When I heard about a book, my first thought was I'd totally buy it. When I found out it was out, I didn't look back I needed it in my house, it will always be one of my prized possessions. If a second compilation is made I'll end up buying that too.

When I purchased this book for my Kindle, I really looked forward to having the same experience many of the other reviewers had of it being written just for me. There were many passages that did appeal to me and made perfect sense. Other passages seemed to appeal to a former version of me from my college years, when you have your first love and lose it and it feels like your heart's ripped out of your chest. A lot of the writing deals with the theme of unrequited love without much variation, so I think the book would've been better if it dealt with a broader range of themes that could appeal to more people in various stages of life. That being said, there were a few passages that were different, and I found those refreshing. I think the actual book is probably much better than the Kindle version because the pictures on my Kindle were very dark and hard to make out. Many of the passages' titles confused me as well- perhaps I'm not creative enough to understand how they relate to the writing- but many of the titles seemed to have nothing to do with the writing. But I'm sure that's just because I didn't sit there long enough and analyze it, and it probably would've helped to see the picture better to tie it all in. Three stars because some of the passages were just beautiful. My favorites are the ones about where to put one's hands when sitting next to a lover, the conversation with the Universe in a shop that sells happiness, being the sea and reaching the one you love no matter how they try to hold you back, the passage titled "The Nod and the Wink," and the passage about there being no coincidences. I'm glad I purchased this because it was something different, and for that reason it stands out.

Esse livro é muito fofo as vezes exagerado mas 90% do tempo é extremamente fofo meu coração está doendo quero abraçar todo mundo (tpm)

I got it for myself as a little birthday gift, and the quotes are just amazing, some of them even left me thinking for 20 minutes

Great collection of poetry.

Amazing book, every page made you feel something. It pierces through your heart and the pictures reflect every word written.

So I came across this poetry book ' I wrote this for you' by IAIN S.THOMAS & I need to share my experience. Remarkable af , tbh there are few poetry books who did well with their art of imagery. If you're looking for a perfect gift for you loved ones, this is the book. Go for it without doubt. Let me know your experiences, if y'all liked it or not. ( I loved it ) ❤️
