In Deliberations, Constantina turns her unflinching gaze inward, moving through love, grief, longing, and spiritual restlessness with the honesty of someone who has never learned to look away. With a voice by turns tender and fierce, confessional and contemplative, she addresses the people, the absences, and the unnamed forces that have shaped her interior life.
From a love that refuses convention, to dismantling a life piece by piece, to sitting with an unknown God whose presence is felt most keenly in absence, Constantina writes from inside the full complexity of being human and remaining honest about it.
These poems will resonate with anyone who has loved imperfectly, grieved without resolution, or stood restlessly at the threshold of a life still becoming. They do not offer answers so much as companionship, the reassurance that someone else has sat in that same darkness, looked it full in the face, and found there, quietly woven through everything, the subtle threads of grace.
