the ghost of you keeps me awake [editor's choice 2021 | poetry] [cover by @qixing]

A collection of poems by Nandashree. "Destiny," the chief poem of this collection chronicles the life of Sita, an illustrious character of the Indian epic, "Ramayana." Sita is known for her unwavering devotion to her husband, Rama. That is what makes her life and story so tragic. Although the plot of the original epic is driven by her abduction, she is hardly given any importance and is cast away as soon as the purpose of her existence is accomplished. This poem details the feelings of Sita as she goes through joys as well as various trials and tribulations, and for once makes "Ramayana" all about Sita and her 'destiny'.

This is my first book. All of these poems are real to me. Please comment if you like it, but no hate please. Enjoy!!!
