One Day I Will Save Myself: Poems in English and Spanish | Elvira Sastre

2 posts | 2 read

The debut US poetry collection from social media star Elvira Sastre, exploring the sharp, slippery moments that turn a beloved relationship into something self-destructive. Counting the days that pass after a devastating breakup, Elvira Sastre confronts the haunting questions that surround every failed relationship: What happened? Where did it all go wrong? How did it all fall apart? With a bold, lyrical voice poised on the knife’s edge of romance and grief, Sastre evokes the heady rush of first love and the sorrow of its painful end—even as she learns to pick up the pieces and move on after the worst has happened. At once deeply personal and universally resonant, painful and resoundingly hopeful, One Day I Will Save Myself speaks to the poet in all of us. An intimate journey through loving, losing, and living that inspires readers to begin their own healing and is perfect for fans of Rupi Kaur, r.h. Sin, and Atticus.

The circle under my eyes are overflowing
with dreams
ever since you kissed my eyelids.

I think my expectations were too high on this. While I enjoyed it, there‘s something about it that soured it for me. Top flags I use for entire poems, but side flags I use just for specific lines and I think that context helps the photo illustrate what my feelings about this were. Poetry tastes really vary widely so I don‘t mean want to dissuade anyone from this, but I personally found it to be pretty mediocre.
