things we never got to share
About this ebook
I just hope, if nothing else, you’re not sad anymore.
Christopher M. Tantillo’s poetry collection, things we never got to share, is the third 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 embraces you in a heart-wrenching confession of moving on and grieving after the loss of someone you loved. The collection invites the reader to reflect on the things they never got to share with the people they cared for before it was too late.
