In this collection, Liam Reid traces the fragile, luminous terrain of love, loss, and longing. Through a series of deeply confessional poems, he navigates the ache of unattainable desire, the tenderness of memory, and the bittersweet tension between courage and vulnerability. From the haunting, ethereal reflections of Air Between Us and the delicate loss in When Feathers Were Light, to the confessional, fearless intensity of Fearless, Fragile, Reid's work captures the intimate heartbeat of human emotion.
Each poem is a world unto itself - a delicate, precise exploration of the spaces between presence and absence, touch and memory, love and longing. With vivid imagery, lyrical cadence, and a haunting musicality, these poems inhabit the raw, unspoken moments of life: the scars we carry, the breaths we miss, the echoes of hands we cannot hold. This is a collection of hearts laid bare, of love both felt and forbidden, a lyrical journey through memory, desire, and the weight of what remains unsaid.
