Death is not an ending but a shift. Leaves fall to make way for spring. Some poems hum with the ache of limerence (that intoxicating state of irrational infatuation and longing), while others catch the light of a passing moment. Abstract and grounded, these poems are not answers but invitations. A space for readers to feel, to wander, to find their own meaning in the quiet between the lines.
