Grieving the Loss of Someone Who Is Still Very Much Alive, a new book by R. Marít, has been released by Dorrance Publishing Co., Inc.

"I am holding a funeral for everything we used to be burying the remains of what could have been deep beneath the earth and the hardest part is mourning the death of someone who is very much still alive…"

Invoking the five stages of grief, Grieving the Loss of Someone Who Is Still Very Much Alive is a heartrending collection of poetry chronicling the aftermath of a break-up. For anyone that has ever had their heart broken by the death of a relationship, these poems put words to those feelings of abandonment, anger, and grief over a love lost.

About the Author
I am an artist of many mediums. I find that words happen to be one of the most powerful forms of art; while being referred to as the greatest weapon, words may also bring people together. The vulnerability of placing some of my deepest thoughts into visible context for the public to relate to is one of the more challenging things about being an artist, regardless of the creative medium. I have also always been passionate about taking care of people, and I use my art as a way to express a relatable standpoint for the reader to relate to during especially during time where they may be feeling alone, or as a way to connect and show that we all must go through grief at some point in our lives.
