Love Is Overrated (But I Still Wrote You Poems)
by Jacob Tsunda Salihu
On the other side of every great love story lies a quiet room where someone begins to write.
These poems were born there -
in the stillness after an argument,
in the hush between a whispered prayer and the dawn.
In Love Is Overrated (But I Still Wrote You Poems), Jacob Tsunda Salihu gathers the fragile, unpolished hours of his own living and offers them whole. Each piece was written as it happened - letters to friends, lovers, strangers, and God - capturing the heartbeat of moments that rarely wait for poetry.

Here, love is not a tidy miracle.
It is a bruise that teaches,
a flame that both warms and warns,
a holiness that dares to wear human skin.
Move through four landscapes:
The Myth of Love
Still, I Loved You Anyway
Boundaries, Becoming, and the Brave Goodbye
The Sacred and the Sensual
You will taste heartbreak like salt on the tongue, find the courage of leaving, and stumble upon a faith that glows quietly inside desire.
This is a book to read slowly, to carry into the night, to return to when the world feels both too heavy and too beautiful. It is proof that even when love disappoints, the act of naming it - of writing it down - can save what is left of us.
