The sea does not keep what it loves.

It arrives. It departs. It leaves behind traces-salt on the skin, a voice carried by the wind, footprints erased before morning.

In Salt Sinks Into Salt, MM Williams returns to the shoreline to explore longing, beauty, memory, desire, and the mysteries of what remains after love has passed through our lives. Across twenty-six expansive lyrical poems, the sea becomes more than a setting. It becomes a language through which the heart learns to speak about absence, surrender, wonder, and return.

These poems move through tides of intimacy and distance, through storms and moments of stillness, through the landscapes of memory and the changing weather of the soul. They ask timeless questions: Why do we try to hold what cannot be held? Why do certain voices continue to echo within us long after they have fallen silent? What does the sea know about love that we do not?

Rich with Mediterranean imagery, elemental beauty, and emotional depth, Salt Sinks Into Salt invites readers into a world where water, wind, light, and longing are woven together into a single meditation on impermanence and belonging.

For all who have stood at the edge of the sea and felt something within themselves answer back.

The water returns to the water.

The salt sinks into the salt.
