You Touched Me Deeply
You touched me deeply is a book of poems written from and to the heart. On buses, in waiting rooms, at airports, Alisa Kanti used her mobile phone to translate the internal struggle that almost everyone endures in their life in order to find balance. lt is a walk through the liquid landscape of emotions filled with love, loss, pain, and gratefulness. lt is a reminder that we should not ignore the feelings that touch us so deeply.
"Like an origami, my words, Are folded, Turning an empty page, Into a song for you. Soft gestures, Strong but hidden feelings, You should Not ignore."
After several years of traveling, Alisa Kanti decided to settle down and we could say that the city of Barcelona chose her. Her poems were dancing in her head years before, taking form in the notebook of her mobile phone, over WhatsApp and the messages she was sending to her friends. One day, her closest friend encouraged her to share them with the rest of the world. From that moment on, the first book of poems, You Touched Me Deeply, came together. It is based on a personal story– one of the most intense love stories she ever had. Her poems are written inspired by real life. Her poetic voice is powerful, passionate, direct, personal and female. On walks along the beach, waiting for the next train or bus, running through the woods, queuing in the supermarket or just waiting for a friend, she continues her walk through the liquid landscape of feelings by writing her second book Butterflies On Your Lips.

On a honest and trutful way Alisa Kanti wrote her first Book about love and falling in love. Its poetry that touches our soul.

A promising collection of poems that falls short. It struggles to deliver that powerful and profound sentiment a poem should evoke. Most of the poems seem just like phrases or thoughts with no deeper meaning and no literary work, lacking form and structure.
While there are moments of clarity and emotion, the collection leaves a lot to be desired. It does not resonate with poetry.
