Introducing My New Poetry Collection: Relational Relics – A Journey of Love and Self-Discovery
Thoughts on Creating My Most Personal Collection Yet
Happy Sunday, loves.
I’ve been working on putting my fourth poetry collection together, and, as promised, I want to share the title, a little about what it’s about, and some insights into my experience weaving it together.
Relational Relics: The Entire Point is a poetic exploration of relationships and the profound impact they have on our lives. Through deeply introspective and emotionally raw poetry, this collection delves into the journey of human connection—from the initial longing for closeness, through the tenderness of love, the pain of heartbreak, the courage of self-discovery, and finally, the peace of spiritual transformation.
Each poem is a “relic,” a lasting remnant of my own personal experiences with relationships. The collection traces the arc of human intimacy, revealing how relationships serve as mirrors, reflecting our deepest desires, vulnerabilities, and capacity for growth. It speaks to the beauty and complexity of love, the wounds and lessons of loss, and the strength found in healing.
At its heart, this book is about finding meaning in relationships—the entire point of our human experience is relational. It’s about connecting with others, with nature, and, ultimately, with oneself.
Every time I sit down to work on the book, I enter a space of communion with the divine, with the deep feminine. The feeling of communion with Her is so palpable as I carefully craft these beautiful relics of words into an experience that’s both universal and deeply personal.
To be honest, I feel emotional assembling such a personal collection. These poems capture a wide range of intimate, raw experiences—each one holds a memory, a feeling, or a piece of me that was meaningful at the time of writing. Seeing them all together, organized as a journey from longing through love, heartbreak, healing, and transformation, can feel like looking back over significant chapters of my life. It’s both vulnerable and empowering.
As I put this collection together, it’s a testament to my strength, growth, and insight. Each poem, like a “relic,” captures a moment in time, yet collectively, they show my evolution as both a writer and a person. In a way, I’m honoring all those emotions, giving them a lasting home in this book.
I cannot wait to share it with you before the end of the year!
In the meantime, I’d love to know what you think, any questions you have, and what’s on your heart when you think about such a book.
Blessed Be,
Hunni Bloom
