"To everyone in the pursuit of better loving."

This Time We Lead with Love is a 29 poem collection that explores love from a different angle every day of February. This honest exploration delves into the way in which we try to love those things that are most dear to us. In his debut poetry collection, MacLeod weaves through stories of intimacy, abundance, introspection and grief, seeking to ask more questions than he answers. At the end of this journey, the reader will be left intrigued by their own relationship with love and how they might love even more fully and openly.

Whether you are healing from loss or celebrating a new beginning, these poems serve as a reminder that when we lead with love, we are never truly alone.

The collection is also available as a spoken word series on Instagram (@wewerepoets), including the video below for the poem Winning.
