A Lonely Walk is a visual and poetic odyssey through a woman's life, rendered in several evocative single-panel illustrations and soul-baring poems. Always in her yellow dress, she moves through childhood innocence, first love, heartbreak, friendship, grief, solitude, motherhood, and, ultimately, quiet strength and self-acceptance. Her silence is not absence-it is witness.

This is not a collection about survival alone-it is about becoming. It's about finding beauty in questions that have no answers. About walking through loneliness and not needing to be rescued from it.

Featuring poems such as Still, We Are, Return From Love?, Holy Questions, Memory Speaks, Let Me Be Lonely, and Love Letter From Loneliness, the book explores identity, generational memory, abandonment, love, and the tension between silence and voice. Each piece is a confession, a reckoning, and a reclamation.

The visual arc of the book-a woman in a yellow dress across 40 life scenes-pairs with each poem to offer a deeply human experience of time, aging, pain, joy, and resistance. Her yellow dress becomes a symbol of continuity: one body, many phases, held together by thread, breath, and memory.

A Lonely Walk speaks to readers of illustrated poetry, poetic memoir, hybrid literary works, and those drawn to reflective, emotionally resonant storytelling. It is ideal for general adult readers, women's literature fans, poetry lovers, and all who've ever asked what it means to carry silence-and then speak anyway.
