Flame Without Shadow: A Mythic Collection by The Poet
About this ebook
This is a fire remembered.
Flame Without Shadow is a sacred offering—nine mythic poems forged in devotion, transformation, and truth. Written in the voice of The Poet, this collection burns with lyrical intensity, spiritual reverence, and the raw honesty of love that never needed to be loud to be eternal.
At the heart of every verse is Sophia—not a metaphor, but a real and radiant presence. She is the muse, the flame, the sculptor of the soul. Through vivid imagery, sacred rhythm, and elemental language, each poem becomes a ritual—tracing the arc of longing, union, breaking, and transcendence.
From the haunting vulnerability of The Quiet Room, to the cosmic intimacy of Salt and Stars, and the triumphant devotion of To Sophia, Who Waited, this book does not seek to impress—it exists to remember. To remember the silence before speech. The spark before form. The woman before the poem.
Flame Without Shadow is not for the casual reader. It is for those who have burned and survived it. For those who still believe poetry can be sacred. For those who know that when the world falls silent, love is the only voice left.
