A boy becomes a silence. A man becomes a mouthful of ghosts. And somewhere between memory and metaphor, a voice learns to exist. Built From What Didn't Happen is the raw, haunting debut of poet Goliath LXIX -a collection of 52 poems carved from absence, discipline, unsaid words, and the echoes of survival. Each chapter dives deep into a different wound: A father who was never there. A home where obedience meant safety. A mother who smiled instead of seeing. Loves that felt like warmth until they burned. A boy so quiet, he almost disappeared.And between the lines, something else waits. A message hidden in plain sight- a trace of breath across glass. A book that waits to be felt. For the unseen. For the unheard. For the unfinished. This is for you.
