An honest, raw, and intoxicating collection of poetry from the #1 Bestselling author of The Night I Spent with Aubrey Fisher and Keep You.Because the day I came alive was the day I chose to love myself again.Christopher M. Tantillo's poetry debut, things i never got to tell you, is the first book in a trilogy that weaves personal narratives with professions about how we find ourselves in the many varied stages of falling in and out of love with others and ourselves. It paints a loose narrative as we navigate love, loss, grief, heartbreak, hope, betrayal, death, what it means to be a man expressing emotions, how we romanticize people and places and memories, and ultimately, healing. Like life ebbs and flows, the poems bounce from dismay to infatuation with the turn of a page.Tantillo weaves an experience that will leave you heartbroken, seduced, and introspective on your own relationships, past and present. The collection invites the reader to reflect on the things they never got to tell to the people they loved, or that loved them.
