Excerpt
LOML
The wedding had been called off just moments ago. I couldn't even find myself looking at you... at the way you glossed your eyes over while talking amongst all your family and close friends; almost as if you've expected them to believe I'd just broken your heart while calling off the biggest day of my young life.

Humpty Dumpty
He knows there are countless metaphors and works of art that explain grief and death, and he knows they’re meant to inspire growth and understanding, but nothing he’s studied or overthought or sought out as an answer has ever made sense to him. Nothing has filled the hole that her absence left. Nothing triggers the acceptance and growth he’s read so much about. His life is still tumbling down and the Earth is still shattering. He tries his best to dumb it down for himself, but grief is riddled with nuance, and he’s never been all too quick on the uptake.
