What if love left claw marks, and you kissed like an arsonist?

Nearly is a searing exploration of what it means to ache for what almost was. In this third collection, Mira Hadlow writes from the raw, holy in-between-the liminal spaces of heartbreak, desire, and haunting memory.

Structured in five evocative movements-Let Us Witness, Let Us Hunger, Let Us Burn, Let Us Go, and Let Us Remember-these poems trace the fierce beauty of thresholds. Lovers become ghost-light. Doorways become altars. Beds hold the afterimage of confessions left unsaid.

With language that blends reverence and profanity, Hadlow's voice is equal parts sacred sermon and bar fight elegy. For readers drawn to the erotic, the unresolved, and the unflinchingly real, Nearly is not just a book-it's a reckoning.

For anyone who has stayed too long, left too late, or loved like it was the end of the world-this is for you.
