What becomes of a promise left unfinished? What happens after the happily ever after?
As We Are brings together poetic stories of love, loss, longing, life and death, looking beyond the endings we are taught to believe in. Here, promises remain unfinished, stories take unexpected turns, fairy tales meet the realities of growing up, and death becomes a part of the stories we leave behind.
From the lingering ache of Unfinished to the quiet solitude of The Last Train Home, these poems move through heartbreak and hope, memory and change, love and loss, finding meaning in both the moments we hold onto and those we are forced to let go.
And perhaps, somewhere between the beginnings that never came, the endings we never wanted, and the people we could never become, these poems ask us to do something harder than change: to accept ourselves as we are.
