Now That You're Gone

By Tasha McIntyre

I can't be this way forever;I know I must make a choice.A silent revolution is brewing within me, unprovoked and uncertain, but steady and unwavering.I wonder: Who will I become after all of this?

Now That You're Gone is a poetry collection that explores grief in its most raw, spiritual and intimate form. From life before the loss, to watching them slowly fade away, to after they're gone, the poems dive into the consequences of death, the self-destruction that comes with it and the choices we make through blind existential dread. When the numbness subsides and the grief cracks us open, who do we become? Will the cycles we've tried to break repeat? Is this something we can ever come back from? Can we claw our way out of the trenches? Can we make it out alive?
