All the Things I Should’ve Told You:
Poems on Love, Grief & Resilience
My soul bleeds.
Once punctured,
It trickles down the page
Until it spills, spills, spills.
There is no damming the stream
Of my soul.
The cut is too deep.
It is a surge now.
And I must bleed it all out to heal.
All the Things I Should've Told You is a collection of raw, heartfelt poems on mourning the loss of loved ones, fighting through heartbreak, and soaring into love once more. Written in free verse, each poem reflects one major, timely theme: truth.
If you could go back in time, what would you say?
“Penetrating and poignant. By the time I was finished reading,
I felt like I'd held her hand through a thick forest of loving, losing, hurting, hating, grieving, forgiving, and loving again.”
—Author Trish Heald, Sassafras
“Lovely collection of poetry that speaks of pain, longing, and love.”
—Author Lynn H. Wyvill, Nature’s Quiet Wisdom
“Some of these poems absolutely gutted me. Reading this was like having all the messed-up parts of my own heart dismantled and stitched back together. he presents her themes (love, grief, resilience) remarkably well; sometimes in metaphors, other times with a starkness that's stunning.”
—Michaela B.
