Butterfly Soul by Michael Patton

A deeply moving collection of poems, after losing someone I cared deeply about these resonate so much in the longing for them not to be forgotten but remembered for who they were not just a marked stone in the ground. The poem, Prayer After Death, especially encapsulates the feelings of being there at the end to witness the passing but feeling useless and unable to help in a physical save your life way more a hope it's an easy not painful slip away, this collection really felt like grief being understood and shared feelings that we are all not alone losing someone even when it can feel that way.
