Love begins quietly; in glances that linger too long, in laughter that hides a tremor, in the breath between hello and almost. But it never stays still. In The Shapeshifting Heart, Makitia Thompson traces love through every incarnation: from the spark of first attraction to the slow burn of passion, from the ashes of heartbreak to the quiet reflections that follow. Told through vivid, lyrical poetry and grounded in emotional truth, this collection explores the way love transforms us, consumes us, and refuses to stay one thing for long.

Love begins quietly; in glances that linger too long, in laughter that hides a tremor, in the breath between hello and almost. But it never stays still. In The Shapeshifting Heart, Makitia Thompson traces love through every incarnation: from the spark of first attraction to the slow burn of passion, from the ashes of heartbreak to the quiet reflections that follow. Told through vivid, lyrical poetry and grounded in emotional truth, this collection explores the way love transforms us, consumes us, and refuses to stay one thing for long. Each poem captures a different pulse of love; nervous, wild, toxic, tender, enduring. Until the collection ends where love always seems to lead: to the realization that it never truly ends at all. This is not a story of perfect endings or grand declarations. It is a story of becoming, of hearts that fracture, rebuild, and keep beating anyway. For anyone who has ever loved in silence, burned too brightly, or found themselves haunted by what could have been, The Shapeshifting Heart is your reflection.
Hailing from Halifax, Nova Scotia, Makitia Thompson is a storyteller who dives headfirst into the human experience, examining the fragile line between triumph and tragedy, the cost of fame, the ache of abandonment, and the shadowed corners of desire. For over a decade, she has crafted fictional autobiographies and interview-style narratives that peel back the polished surfaces of her characters, revealing the truths they'd rather keep buried. As the founder of Minds In Design, Thompson has built a creative hub dedicated to bold, boundary-pushing storytelling. Her company blends literature, visual art, and immersive world-building to challenge audiences to confront uncomfortable realities and discover self-reflection through honesty. Her oil and acrylic paintings often echo the emotional weight of her books, creating a visual bridge between her art forms. Starting her writing journey at just 11 years old, Thompson has spent years refining her craft, always circling back to one question: How do we rise above our past to become who we were meant to be?
