Memento Mori by Kay Haven
This was a moving collection of poetry about death, grief and loss in any way where love was involved.
Some stand out poems to me were:
If These Walls Could Speak, how places, rooms and items hold so many memories, observed by the surroundings.
The Five Sonnets of Grief, was sad and beautiful in the storytelling poetic recount of how losing the love of your life leads you through a dark isolating path.
Reflections, was a beautiful poem about the art our bodies wear and how each person views us differently especially to how we view ourselves.
Artists Never Heal, about how writers and poets, singers etc, will all draw on the feelings of pain time and time again to create beautiful art from the pain.
It was a deeply moving collection and utterly relatable if you've faced grief and loss.
