Charles F. J. Horne pens down a stirring collection of poems that lay bare the quiet tragedies of life, loss, and time. In mourning, dying daffodils, fading memories and restless nights, Horne captures the ache of existence with haunting honesty.
Don’t Cry Over Spilt Milk reflects on the world’s slow unravelling, where nature weeps beneath concrete, where guilt lingers like a shadow and a soul that searches for meaning in ruins. Horne reminds us that even in the silence of what’s gone, something still dares to live, breathe and remember.
