What the Heart Carries
Poems for Grief, Heartbreak, and healing
There is no one way to grieve.
There is no right way to heal.
But some poems know how to sit beside you in the dark.
In this intimate and soul-stirring collection, poet Rebecca May Smith traces the quiet, aching path through loss-and the slow return to light. What the Heart Carries moves with gentle power from the sharp edges of sorrow to the tender grace of remembering, mending, and becoming.
Structured in five soul-tending sections, these poems offer more than catharsis. They are a hand to hold, a breath of recognition, and a companion for those navigating the aftermath of love and loss.
Whether you are in the depths of grief or reaching toward hope, these words will meet you where you are-and carry you gently forward.
For those who have loved deeply-and lost-this book is a soft place to land.
Includes a Free Companion GiftTo support you beyond the page, this book comes with a free downloadable PDF: A Gentle Companion for Heavy Days. Inside you'll find selected poems, journaling prompts, and soul-soothing reflections designed to offer comfort and connection through your grief journey. Details on how to access your gift are included inside the book.
