Things I Never Said Aloud is a book for the feelings you swallowed to keep things intact. It moves through almost-love, quiet attachment, and the kind of closeness that never asks to stay. These poems are written from hesitation, from nights spent holding words back, from love that was real even when it was never returned. Raw, restrained, and deeply human, this collection does not chase closure or comfort. It sits with what lingers after silence, and gives shape to the things that stayed when nothing was said.
