I often wonder why do people who write the best poetry don't get that recognition when they are alive?

Fizza Younis is remarkably great, emotional, raw, and authentic in this book. Some of the poems felt like walking on the same bridge and burning them to save some sanity to me. Some of the poems felt like home, and I kept on returning to them. Some of the poems were like seeing myself growing up through her lens. Some of the poems were telling me to get up and walk ahead.

I wouldn't want you to miss this book because poetry is the connection that connects you to your soul. And Fizza has done that so marvelously with the power of her words. She has talked about strength, courage, kindness, humility, gratitude, and resilience in many of her poems, and ultimately she leaves a message of always fighting what you truly strive for in life.

My favorite poems are:

'Musings of a Tortured Soul'
'My Tears Are Never Dry'
'You Were Never There'
'Wishing For Another Life'
'Farewell'
'You Are You'

Her words are beautiful as her soul. I am glad that I picked this book, and this has influenced me enough to read her other poetry books.

Reading this again reminded me of so many things. I may be biased but some of these poems are good. :)
