The Language of After: Poems of Loss, Love, and the Lives We Continue Living (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798180952721)

Before grief, there was only one language.

Then came loss.

A mother's final breath. A father's addiction. The sudden absence of people who once felt permanent. The quiet unraveling of who you thought you would be.

After that, everything had to be learned again.

The Language of After is a collection of poems written from the spaces grief leaves behind-
exploring trauma, love, friendship, motherhood, anger, faith, and survival. These poems do not offer easy answers. Instead, they sit beside the reader in the dark and whisper a truth many of us learn too well:

We do not move on from loss.

We learn its language.

And somehow, we keep living.
