Photography by Davian M. SuloThe Luminous Silence is a collection of poems written from the places where noise ends and listening begins.These poems move through love and loss, exile and belonging, faith and endurance. They linger in quiet moments-where memory breathes, where distance does not erase connection, and where silence carries its own light. This is a book about tenderness that survives even when words grow uncertain.Blerina B. Sulo writes of wanderers and mothers, of fractured histories and steady dignity, of the unseen weight carried by ordinary lives. Her poems do not ask for attention. They offer honesty. They stay close to what is human-fragile, patient, and enduring.This book is for readers who believe that silence can be an act of courage, that love does not need witnesses to endure, and that the truest things are often spoken softly.The Luminous Silence invites you to slow down, to listen, and to recognize yourself in the stillness.
