But Who Loves Sad Boys? - 9780639794891

But Who Loves Sad Boys? We were told that boys don't cry, but they do, a lot, actually. They eat their feelings too and feel bad about it the following morning. They hate being different and their insecurity stings deeper that they would avoid mirrors for a long time and no one would even notice, for they would masquerade it all with confidence, recklessness, or act like they don't care at all.. Boys are petty, and they hide being clingy the same way they hide loving pink more than blue. Most times they smile when they are pretty hurt but just like kaleidoscopes - when you look close and with focus, you will find every emotion painted on their lashes and those beautiful weary eyes. Boys cook too when they want to be distracted, if not hungry. They write poetry on walls, for sometimes pages can't withstand the weight. Boys are funny even on their worst days and every so often the bad joke they would tell means they are trying - trying to be seen, to be heard and to be loved. This collection is not necessarily written from a boy's perspective, it holds pieces of all our voices and stories. It unveils raw vulnerability and this goes beyond mere melancholy, exploring universal themes of love, loss, heartbreak, identity, and the longing for genuine connections after one had collected shards of their hearts in different places and tried to mend them, carefully this time. It helps us witness the beauty that sadness reveals and sheds light on the unique experiences of individuals whose pain often goes unnoticed. After all, this war is for us all. 'But Who Loves Sad Boys?' is home to 'Are You Jealous That I Am Sad Without You?' and the following upcoming collections: Infinite Hurrahs To Us Broken Things, Two Lonely Unkissed Bones, Messages From The Bears, Moon Corpse, Tell Hudson, I Am Terribly Sorry, Call Me Darling When The End Is Near, 'But Who Loves Sad Girls?' and 'But Who Loves Sad Queers?'. Trigger Warning: This book explores themes around mental health topics such as depression, anxiety, self-harm and suicide, and a use of vulgar phrases.
