Third Quarter Moon: Matters of the Heart

By Sharese Simone

This is a walk through the shedding, the stillness, and the becoming.

In Third Quarter Moon: Matters of the Heart, Sharese Simone invites readers into a deeply personal space, where love is both sacred and complicated, where grief and beauty coexist, and where truth rises through poetry, memory, and reflection.

Through raw prose and lyrical verse, she reflects on womanhood, healing, identity, and the quiet power and liberation of choosing yourself. These are the stories we whisper to ourselves when no one's watching. The ones we tuck between pages and prayers. This collection speaks to those who've experienced imperfect endings and profound revelations - who've had to release what no longer inspires love and evolution, rediscover their worth, or reclaim their voice.

Like the moon in its final phase, this book honors endings not with fear, but with grace, intention, and anticipation.

This is more than a collection-it's a reckoning. A release. A return to self.
