Description

What remains when the self unravels in silence? When love arrives too gently to hold, and leaves too quietly to mourn? Reflection is a collection of poems that traces the quiet undoing of a soul - through trauma, intimacy, longing, loss and the fragile hope that flickers in its wake. Structured in four parts: Dissolution of Self, Longing and Loss, Erasure, and an intimate Epilogue. This book captures the emotional landscape of someone who was almost healed, almost chosen, almost remembered. These are poems for the ones who gave too much, felt too deeply, and stayed soft even when the world turned hard. For those who held someone close, only to find themselves fading. For those who love, without conditions, without being asked to. Through metaphor, memory, and dreamlike symbolism, Reflection explores what it means to be seen, to be left behind, and to still offer love in return. This is not a story of happy endings. It's a story of truth, of emotional echoes, and the resilience of the human soul, even in its quietest, most broken moments. ____________ PART I - Dissolution of Self A slow collapse of identity. These poems trace numbness, self-erasure, and the fragile beginning of connection. PART II - Longing and Loss The ache of almost. Love lingers, slips, and echoes - each poem a pulse in the hollow where closeness used to be. PART III - Erasure Fading without anger. A gentle disappearance. These are the quiet spaces where memory thins and presence dissolves. EPILOGUE - Mirror Two reflections: her storm, your home. A final offering of love - soft, unconditional, and unforgotten.
