Love Hurts - David Lee Crump

Love Hurts is a heartfelt collection of poems that rises from the quiet, vulnerable spaces of the human heart. It explores love as devotion and loss, longing and faith, strength and surrender, revealing how deeply love can shape and unmake us. Through raw emotion and gentle reflection, the poems trace the ache of separation, the weight of heartbreak, and the comfort found in memory.

Themes of loyalty, prayer, and resilience weave throughout the collection, offering moments of hope even in the midst of pain. The book also honors familial love, spiritual belief, and the

courage it takes to keep loving after loss.

Written for those who have loved deeply and suffered silently, Love Hurts gives voice to emotions often left unspoken. It stands as a reminder that even when love wounds, it remains real, meaningful, and capable of guiding us toward healing, understanding, and emotional renewal.
