Selcouth: The Unfamiliar Light Beneath Everyday Things

Selcouth (adj.) - rare, strange, marvelous, and wondrous.

This is a poetry collection for the wanderers. For the ones who cry without knowing why. For those who love too hard, feel too much, and dream in quiet corners of their minds.

Selcouth is a tender exploration of what it means to live with an open heart in a world that often tells us to close it. Through poems and short prose, it carries the reader through the tangled paths of love, loss, self-discovery, and the quiet moments in between. This is not a roadmap-it's a resting place. A place to be seen.

These pages are soft with longing. They carry the ache of goodbyes and the hush of healing. They pulse with the bittersweet beauty of remembering, and the silent courage of becoming. With each line, Selcouth invites you deeper into the strange, wondrous terrain of your own soul.

Inside this book, you'll find poetry that speaks to:

• The heartbreak of love that doesn't last

• The strength it takes to begin again

• The ache of growing out of who you were

• The quiet resilience of feeling everything

• The wild magic of learning to stay soft in a hard world

This is for the quiet feelers.
For those who carry too many thoughts at midnight.
For the ones who feel like strangers to themselves some days.
For anyone who has ever wondered if being sensitive is a flaw-it's not. It's a flame.
