I Loved You Here - Paperback

by Julianna Balducci (Author)

I Loved You Here is a lyrical, emotionally raw poetry collection that traces love in all its fleeting, devastating, and unforgettable forms. Moving through youth, intimacy, heartbreak, nostalgia, and self-reckoning, these poems capture the moments that linger long after people leave-the late-night conversations, shared cities, borrowed jackets, and the ache of what could have been.

With imagery rooted in seasons, travel, memory, and quiet domestic scenes, the collection reflects on attachment, loss, longing, and the struggle to let go of what once felt like home. Each piece reads like a confession whispered to the past, balancing vulnerability with resilience.Honest, intimate, and deeply reflective, I Loved You Here speaks to anyone who has loved fiercely, lost painfully, and carried the echo of someone long after goodbye.
