Avoidance is a deeply personal poetry collection exploring what happens when grief is pushed aside for too long. Written over years of quiet suppression, these poems capture the quiet violence of absence, the illusion of moving on, and the terror of forgetting someone you love. As the author confronts memories of her father-both devastating and tender-she unearths the truth that healing requires not distance, but closeness. Each poem peels back another layer of avoidance until only honesty remains. With themes of grief, absence, fear and hope, Avoidance speaks to anyone who has loved deeply and lost silently. This is not a guide to grief but a journey.
