ADELAIDE, Australia - AussieJournal -- Australian poet Rebecca May Smith releases What The Heart Carries: How We Break, How We Mend (Living In Wellness Pty Ltd, 2025), a grief poetry collection resonating deeply with readers worldwide. With raw honesty and lyrical grace, Smith explores loss, love, and the quiet resilience of the human heart—already sparking viral attention for lines like "Grief isn't linear—and neither is this book."

Why This Book Stands Out

In an era of toxic positivity, What The Heart Carries refuses to rush sorrow into closure. Instead, it serves as a gentle companion for readers navigating grief's non-linear path. The book's five sections mirror the stages of loss, inviting readers to:

• "Start where it lands"—skip pages, write in margins, or cling to a single poem.
• Find solace in verses like "You Were Always the Light" and "Part of Everything."
• Access a free companion journal with prompts for reflection.
