Some days don’t announce themselves.
They just quietly keep things standing.

Another great poem that has returned to my mind often since stumbling it for the first time. From the collection "The Hocus-Pocus of the Universe" by Laura Gilpin.
I actually did a full audiobook of this collection. If you want to listen, the link to that is at

January arrives pretending something was wiped clean—but the truth is quieter, heavier, and more honest than that.

Christmas has always felt like an ache to me.
Not joy. Not sorrow. Something in between.
A quiet melancholy that settles once the noise fades.

💔 Loving You, Losing Me is the story of love that felt like a slow unraveling #LovingYouLosingMe #HeartbreakPoetry #PoeticBipolarMind #LoveAndLoss #ConfessionalPoetry #PoetryOfHeartbreak #ModernPoetry #EmotionalWriting #PoetsOfInstagram

Loving You, Losing Me is a raw and haunting poem that explores the pain of giving everything to a love that only drains in return. With vivid imagery of emptiness, silence, and despair, it captures the suffocating weight of heartbreak while echoing the timeless tragedy of love and loss.
— SEE YOU SOON ---
“I want to hold your hand.
Talk to you,
Walk with and be with you.
Hug You
Laugh with you too.
Share my dreams with you,
Hold you in my arms
Because I Love You
and I think the world of you!
You are a gift
Who makes me smile
And makes my soul laugh
Just by being yourself.
I'll see you soon
and we'll be together again.
Thank you. I Love you.”
From (written journal, transcribed online on fedi)
See You Soon: a poem by Crissy Tish Addams
