Sometimes leaving is only the beginning.
unlearning you is an intimate, illustrated poetry collection about what happens when loving someone costs you pieces of yourself-and the difficult work of discovering who you are after they're gone.
Told in three movements-The Burn, The Ash, and The Wings-L.C. Pierce traces the arc of a relationship from desire and devotion through self-erasure, heartbreak, grief, and the complicated aftermath of letting go. But moving on is not the same as unlearning. What remains are the habits, the memories, the wounds, and the versions of ourselves we created to survive loving someone else.
Raw, vulnerable, and hauntingly illustrated, unlearning you is ultimately a story of reclamation: not returning to the person you were before, but becoming someone who finally belongs to herself again.
For anyone who has ever had to ask which pieces were theirs, which belonged to someone else, and what might still be waiting beneath the ashes.
Some things leave. Some things stay. Some things have to be unlearned.
