Toujours
This is not a love story. This is what love does to the soul it claims.
Toujours is a collection of eighty-one poems that moves through devotion in its many forms: the first heat of youthful longing, the inherited bonds of family and friendship, the quiet ache of loving at a distance, and the kind of love that consumes completely. It is a descent. It is an offering. It is a book written at the altar, where affection becomes consecration, and desire demands sacrifice.
Threaded throughout is fire, felt in the body as much as named on the page—the kind that warms, sanctifies, burns through bone, and learns how to wait underground.
These poems ask the reader: What have you laid on the altar in the name of love?
And what still smolders, waiting to rise?
