Find This, Then Me

By E "LilBexar" Valdez

Find This, Then Me is a message in a bottle for anyone who has ever loved someone long after the relationship stopped loving them back. In this debut poetry collection, LilBexar leads the reader through a graveyard of a love that lingered, thinned, and reshaped itself into memory, ache, and ritual.

Through poems that move between prayer and protest, myth and mourning, LilBexar explores what remains after a relationship collapses: the residue on the ribs, the almosts that echo like psalms, the second chances that open like portals, and the ruins we keep trying to resurrect. These pieces are equal parts confession, eulogy, and cosmic intervention. unravel the intimate story of a love defined not by breakage, but by its refusal to fully die.

Rooted in Southern Gothic atmosphere and the author's signature blend of tenderness and fire, Find This, Then Me offers readers a space to grieve, laugh, remember, and release. The collection becomes a mausoleum built from ash and ink: a place to stand when memory aches, a place to bury what cannot return, and a place to reclaim yourself after the leaving.

This book is for the ones still lingering, the ones learning to let go, and the ones who need a witness to their survival.
