There is a particular kind of grief that has no proper name. It is not the grief of death, though it borrows death's weight. It is the grief of loving someone who was still breathing, still walking through the world, and yet gone in every way that mattered.

Tears of Sapphire is a collection of one hundred original poems that trace the full, unruly shape of that grief: the shock of discovery, the quiet fury, the exhausting bargaining with what might have been, the long gray weight of loss, the memories that refuse to behave, the body's own private reckoning, the strange comfort of solitude, the slow inventory of a self nearly lost, and finally, hard won, a kind of peace.
