What becomes of a thing that is loved but never possessed?
Through the language of flowers, the indifference of the heavens, and the slow violence of the natural world, this collection explores the peculiar intimacy of longing. Its poems dwell in contradictions: the tenderness of wanting, the indignity of being changed, the beauty of what remains forever beyond reach. Here, a flower may spend its life turned toward another bloom; an ocean may answer a distant moon without ever touching it.
These are poems about the things we cannot make ours, the feelings we cannot make mutual, and the quiet transformations that occur when desire outlives its object. They ask what it means to carry something within you that has never belonged to you-and whether the things we fail to keep can nonetheless become part of who we are.
Some distances cannot be crossed. Some things, once felt, cannot be undone.
