Overview

What happens when loving someone means losing yourself? LOVE, LOSS, and (BE)LONGINGS is a raw, unflinching poetry collection about love and loss, learning and yearning, waiting and wanting, the push and the pull, heartbreaks and the magic of falling in love. In over 90 poems organized across four emotionally resonant sections, Athira explores what it means to love someone who becomes your god-and what it costs to choose yourself instead. From worship to wisdom. From broken to whole. This collection moves through four transformative stages: WORSHIP - The intoxication of making someone your entire world WAITING - The particular loneliness of hoping they'll choose you WOUNDED - Raw anger, grief, and the courage to feel it all WAY FORWARD - The hard work of becoming your own rescue These poems are written with honesty about codependency, mental health, heartbreak, and the revolutionary act of self-love. Messy, repetitive, contradictory, and real. Because that's how grief works. That's how love works. That's how healing works. This is a book about recovering yourself. This book is for anyone who has loved, lost and longed to be loved.
