Yes, I Cry - Makitia Thompson

Some grief arrives like a storm.
Some heartbreak stays like weather.

Yes, I Cry. is a deeply intimate poetry collection about grief in all its forms: heartbreak, loss, sorrow, longing, emotional exhaustion, and the quiet pain that lingers long after the world expects healing to have already begun.

Tender, raw, and unflinchingly honest, these poems explore what it means to carry ache in the body, memory in the chest, and survival in trembling hands. They are for the ones mourning people, versions of themselves, broken hopes, and the softness they never got to keep.

These poems do not try to make pain pretty.
They simply tell the truth about it.

For anyone who has ever loved deeply, lost quietly, and kept going anyway, Yes, I Cry. is a home for every ache that stayed.
