"FOOLS" is a small collection of poetry accompanied by illustrations that reek of love in its rawest nature, therefore defying all kinds of logic. All sixteen poems (excluding the tiny ones on photographs) were inspired by the responses I've received upon asking some folks a simple question: What is the dumbest thing you ever did for love?

Will love be enough, or will Lucky lose everything-including the girl who was never supposed to matter? π A story of love, deception, and the fight for redemption. π In the game of love, who truly wins-and who loses everything?

(not edited) This is the book I never even admired. It was more like a journal for me-just ranting and never meant to be published. I only uploaded it so that my friend could read it, and I never imagined people would actually love it. So, it's nothing like Whispered Vows-that's the book I poured my heart and soul into, dedicating 5-6 months completely. So please, don't judge me by this book π!! It was written when I was a teen and remained just a draft for almost a year from 2022 to 2024.
