I Remember You: Between memory and silence, a voice remains - Paperback

From the psych ward to flight deck, from whispered goodbyes to quiet strength, I Remember You is a raw and unflinching book of poetry and prose by Navy veteran Patrick J. Hughes. Seamed from the unvarnished material of trauma, healing, fatherhood, friendship, and mental illness, these poems will find an echo within anyone who's ever stood in a doorway and wondered how to move forward.

With a raw honesty and with unexpected graciousness, Hughes charts life after conflict, the unseen scars of depression and PTSD, and the lifelines of salvation that bind us when we are breaking. This is a debut poetry collection as testament to survival - not a destination, but an everyday act of bravery.

Whether you've served, loved someone who has, or simply struggled in silence, these pages hold space for your story, too. If you've ever needed to feel less alone, this book remembers you.
