About This Book
The collection presents lyric poems that meditate on longing, duality of soul and self, and existential fatigue, moving through scenes of sea and night, funeral imagery, and imagined dialogues with a sister and a prophetic inner voice. Many poems explore waiting, melancholy, and the tension between transient pleasures and yearning for the eternal, while occasional pastoral and mythic motifs appear in dreamlike phantasias. Voice shifts between introspection and addressed companions, often using mirrors, voyages, and graves as metaphors for identity, mortality, and creative isolation, concluding in tones of resignation and quiet acceptance.
