Grief Wears My Skin: Poems about and Loss of a Spouse in Bloomington, MN

Losing your spouse
isn't just losing the person you love-it's
losing the life you built together.
The routines you shared feel broken. The dreams you planned together are gone. And the comfort of having them by your side every day is now just a memory. What's left is
an emptiness that feels impossible to put into words.
Grief Wears My Skin: Poems about Grief and Loss of a Spouse
gives voice to that pain. It's for anyone who has
felt their world fall apart
after losing their partner. It's for those who are learning how to be
both mother and father,
how to stay strong for their family even when it feels like there's nothing left to give.
This book is for
the quiet moments
-the times when you cry alone, the times when their absence is so sharp it feels like a physical ache. It's for those who
carry their memory into every day,
feeling their presence in everything and missing them everywhere.
Through these poems, you'll find
words for the grief
that feels impossible to express, and a reminder that
you're not alone on this journey.
Grief Wears My Skin
offers understanding, comfort, and
a space to feel seen
as you navigate life after loss.
