Manon Servage

Elsewhere

Elsewhere is a quiet mapping of what remains after a life is rearranged. Written by Manon Servage, this collection explores the geography of distance, the heavy architecture of unspoken truths, and the fragile survival of loving something that is already gone

Maybe I just became

a version of your life

that no longer improves the story.

And maybe that's all we'll ever be.

An almost,

that lasted longer

than some people's forever.

Loving you feels like holding water,

trying not to spill,

trying not to drown,

trying not to ask why you keep choosing thirst.

If you ever wonder why I am tired

it is because hope does not know when to go home

and neither do I.

Elsewhere is available to buy in both paperback and eBook version :
