Dark blue sea by shruti rathi is the collection of mesmerising poems. the book is published by notion press and the book is 221 pages long. the book consists of four sections. the first one is dark, the second one is blue, the third is song, and the fourth is sea.
The dark section consists of poems about separation, pain, anger, fear, grief, rejection, guilt, shame & topics like this. it felt like the poems had literally come out of the heart. the poem & prose were so deep and delightful to read.
The blue section consist of my most favourite section from this book. it felt like these poems were written for me. it gave me so much motivation, inspiration and strength to deal with situations. the poems were about the choices we made, self discovery, accepting pain, lessons, prayers, and many more.
The songs section consist of mostly long poems and my most favourite poem in this section was 'the manifesto of letting go". I was so impressed and inspired by this poem that it become one of my most favourite.
The sea section consists of general musings about the world, earth, stars, language, identity, life, divinity, stone, ice, universe, nature, man, elements and many more. the sea section covers most of the vast topics of nature.
Overall, I really liked this book. the poems were so perfect and I even got spellbound after reading some of the poems, the poems were so raw and pure. the language was also decorative and easy to understand. I would really like to read other works by this poetess. and if you haven't read this book, do it now cause you are missing on one of the amazing poetry book.
