A few verses that piqued me:

💦"Senses may fail and instincts flounder.

      Everywhere fear and darkness permeates. 

      Education and knowledge are but tricky aides, 

      Tis only wisdom which illuminates."

💦 "Tonight is tryst with high and vain, 

       The howling wind and the pouring rain. 

       Gust after gust, torrent after torrent, 

       Drag and jolt the shuddering tent. 

       Unable to discern this furious squall, 

       Fearful eyes struggle for survival."

💦 "Drains away all your zest for life, 

        World’s nothing but an endless strife. 

       When dreams take flight or fall, 

       Against all odds, stand tall. 

      Seek your true destiny, 

      smiling boldly as ever, 

      It’s a beautiful life, my dear. 

      Never say never."

The language is lyrical yet accessible, allowing readers to fully immerse themselves in the emotions behind each verse. Whether you’re looking for inspiration, solace, or a fresh perspective on life, this book delivers an unforgettable poetic experience.
