About These Poems

Poetry isn’t just words; it’s the space between them, the weight of what isn’t said, the echoes of a moment trying to escape time.

These poems span years of experience, reflection, and growth. Some emerged from moments of clarity, others from the depths of confusion. Each one captures a fragment of truth, a slice of life as it was lived and felt.

This collection represents:

  • Moments of transformation
  • Echoes of love and loss
  • Questions without answers
  • Answers that led to more questions
  • The ongoing journey of understanding

I don’t write to explain. I write to explore. Each poem is both a destination and a beginning—a marker on the path of trying to make sense of this beautiful, terrible, wonderful world we inhabit.

About the Poet

I’m Thomas F McGeehan V, and I’ve been writing poetry since I first learned that words could dance. My work explores themes of identity, memory, hope, and the countless ways we try to connect with each other and ourselves.

These poems are footprints of where I’ve been, signposts of who I’ve become, and perhaps, glimpses of where I’m going.

If you find something here that stays with you, then perhaps we’ve already connected in a way only poetry allows.

Poetry is not a luxury. It is a vital necessity of our existence.

— Audre Lorde
