Short story: I loved this author’s poetry! I find it so relatable and easy to read!
Long story: After my breakup in December, my TikTok feed went from dancing trends, epic makeup looks, and Disney nerd fantasy to tarot cards, delulu “if-you-see-this-post”, and heartbreak galore… after sifting through the mess of videos feeding my broken heart empty hope, I found poetry…
I’ve always loved poetry, more so me writing it than me reading it. Most poetry I had read were assigned by teachers to overly analyze to the point the poem was ripped apart and just an empty carcass.
I’d find myself on TikTok for hours—reading and hearting poems—most of which belonged to akhira.
If I was relating, crying, and loving every poem on my For You page, it was clear sign I would love the actual physical books.
I love the tone and easiness of the pace, it’s not too wordy in the sense the author is trying to show off a vast vocabulary like other writers do. akhira knew what they wanted to say and said it, there was no games or nonsense. I will be reading the other two books I have purchased as well.
