Book Overview
What remains when those we love are no longer here?
Where They Still Live is a deeply personal collection of sixty poems written in the aftermath of losing both parents within a span of months. Beginning with the loss of a father and later shaped by the loss of a mother, these poems are not biographies or memorials-they are reflections, conversations with memory, and attempts to understand what remains when presence becomes absence.
Moving through grief, love, faith, memory, and the quiet mysteries of human attachment, the poems explore the enduring influence of parents long after they have left the visible world. A father's strength, a mother's tenderness, childhood recollections, rituals of farewell, photographs, dreams, silence, and the search for meaning all find expression in these pages.
Written with emotional honesty and philosophical depth, this collection is not merely about loss. It is about recognition-of what a father truly is, of what a mother truly means, and of how love continues to shape us even after death.
For anyone who has loved, lost, remembered, and carried that love forward, Where They Still Live offers companionship, reflection, and the comforting reminder that those we cherish never entirely leave us.
They simply change their address-from the world to within us.
