Between the Love and the Ache
Between The Love and the Ache
when love
ran out of words
the language of the body
was all that was left
For the moments you don’t know how to put into words.
For the love that stays. The loss that lingers. The thoughts that don’t quite leave.
A quiet, ongoing collection of poems—delivered to you, one piece at a time.
Each Wednesday, a PDF poem arrives in your inbox.
Each month, an MP3 recording of a poem is spoken aloud.
Not just poetry.
A place to return to—when something in you needs to be felt, understood, or remembered
Each piece explores what we carry:
closing my eyes
i am home
your hand in mine
your breath on my skin
Life — the small moments, the turning points, the quiet resilience
Love — connection, closeness, and everything that deepens it
Loss — absence, memory, and the strange way love remains
You can read them slowly. Save them. Come back when you need them.

- One new, original poem every week
- A quiet moment in your inbox
