There are things I never said. Things I almost whispered. Things I buried in poems so no one would know they were mine.
Unwritten Things is a collection of poems that live in the in-between. Between love and loss, desire and distance, and the words we wish we'd spoken in silence. Jessica Kristie's voice is intimate, unflinching, and achingly human, drawing you into the spaces where longing lingers and tenderness bruises.
These are the pieces of us we don't always show. The truths we try to forget. The moments we swore we'd move past—but never really did.
If you've ever missed someone you shouldn't, ached for something that almost was, or tried to name a feeling that didn't want to be tamed- these pages are for you.
