Some parts of life don't break cleanly. They unravel.
A relationship ends. A loss changes you. Something you believed would last doesn't. And somewhere between who you were before and who you are afterward, you find yourself trying to make sense of what remains.
Between Seams is a deeply personal collection of poetry about those spaces.
Through poems about love, heartbreak, grief, abandonment, fear, self-worth, healing, and hope, K.D. Gates gives language to emotions we don't always know how to explain. These are poems for the moments when you are hurting and hiding it, holding on and questioning why, or slowly learning that healing doesn't always mean returning to who you were before.
The collection unfolds through five stages: Unraveling. Threading. Mending. Knotted. Seam.
Each reflects a different place in the emotional journey-from coming apart and confronting what hurts to gathering the pieces and discovering what can be carried forward.
Between Seams doesn't pretend that every wound closes neatly or every ending immediately makes sense. Instead, it makes room for the complicated middle: the love and the loss, the anger and acceptance, the ache and the hope.
Because sometimes we don't find ourselves after everything has been perfectly repaired. Sometimes we find ourselves somewhere between the seams.
