The Season of Butterfly Weed

There are many ways to tell a story—some begin with a moment, some with a person. This one begins with a feeling. The Season of Butterfly Weed is a journey through love’s changing seasons—tender beginnings, burning intensity, quiet ache, and the slow return to self. These poems explore unrequited love not as loss, but as something that lingers, reshapes, and becomes. Moving from Spring’s innocence to Winter’s clarity, this collection invites you to sit with what was felt, what was held, and what remains. If you have ever loved without being chosen, this book is for you.
