ABOUT THE BOOK

Grief: Poetry of Loss & the Love Left Behind is a raw and intimate collection of poems and illustrations that explores the many shapes grief takes when love has nowhere else to go.

Written in spare, aching language, Kaylin Wingfield traces loss through moments both quiet and unbearable: the weight of memory, the absence of touch, the future that never arrived, and the love that refuses to disappear. These poems speak to the grief of losing a sibling, husband, child, a parent, grandparent, friend, a partner, a beloved animal, and even the living who are no longer reachable. Each piece is a small vessel, holding pain, remembrance, and the enduring presence of love.

This book does not rush healing or offer easy answers. Instead, it honors grief as something deeply human, something that reshapes us, stays with us, and proves how profoundly we have loved. Through stark imagery and emotional honesty, Grief reminds readers that even in darkness, connection remains.

For anyone who has lost, is losing, or carries love for what could not stay, this collection offers companionship, understanding, and the quiet reassurance that you are not alone.
