“A Love I May Never Find Again” – Sanjana Krishna’s Tribute to Love, Loss, and the Ghosts We Carry
Every now and then, a book comes along that doesn’t just touch your heart—it squeezes it, leaves an ache, and quietly lingers. Sanjana Krishna’s A Love I May Never Find Again is one such collection—a poetic elegy for a love lost, and a soul still learning to breathe through the absence.
Recipient of the 21st Century Emily Dickinson Award by BookLeaf Publishing, Sanjana’s deeply personal verses explore the intertwined threads of childhood wounds, broken relationships, and the indelible imprint of the one person who truly understood her.
Written in the wake of profound grief, this book is more than just poetry—it’s a remembrance, a love letter, and a release. “I lost the person who believed in me before I ever did,” Sanjana shares. “He once told me to share my words with the world. This book is my promise to him.”
Each page of A Love I May Never Find Again carries the soft thud of a heart learning to live with an emptiness that never quite fills. Her poems aren’t loud or overly dramatic. They arrive like gentle waves, carrying with them pain, memory, and an ever-present undercurrent of love.
The title itself captures the essence of this work—it’s about a rare connection that can never be recreated. It’s about the kind of love that leaves you with both light and a lifetime of shadows. Through her confessional style, Sanjana welcomes readers into the most sacred corners of her memory, offering a safe space for anyone who has ever loved someone who became a ghost too soon.
What makes Sanjana’s poetry so resonant is its sincerity. There are no literary pretenses—just a young woman sharing her truth. Her language is clear, her imagery gentle, but her emotion—piercing. Whether she writes about empty rooms or aching silences, every word is infused with feeling.
The judges of the Emily Dickinson Award praised her for “her courage in writing about loss with unflinching honesty and poetic grace.” And indeed, Sanjana doesn’t shy away from pain—she holds it, examines it, and gently transforms it into something beautiful.
With A Love I May Never Find Again, Sanjana proves that poetry isn’t always about structure or complexity—it’s about truth. And sometimes, the most devastating truths make the most unforgettable poems.
