There are things that we often misunderstand as the difference between ego, obsession and love as well as the aspects of the human and the animal nature. Everyone has a choice. The question is what do you choose? Our human emotions are unpredictable that none might understand their motive. As we all know 'failure is the pillar of success', this is the story of our fellow mate-Abdul Khan. Whether you see him, always remember that we all have flaws underneath. To overcome, never criticize people who actually try to redeem themselves. Before you judge someone, remember-none are perfect as well as their views.

Highest rank: #164 :) This book is a poetry one. You may, very likely, relate to what I've written so far. For I'm the same as anyone else, but with a little twist which is I can write poetry (I'm no Baudelaire). It is hard to write about poetry for there is no plot, no characters even. You just say it is poetry because the review and criticism part is your turn, dear reader. I hope you enjoy your reading :) This book Cover is by Me Copyright © 2017 Rachid Benharrousse (RachidHuman)
