'Almost Realist' is undoubtedly my most honest work because it's not a book or a story but it's my life. It's a collection of poems, letters and Diary entries I've written at different times and different situations in last 30 years. I'll keep sharing them over the next few days. I don't intend to achieve anything by sharing it. This is not a piece of literature - it's just who I am.

"The first nightmare. That first young corpse.
The first night awake – the first heartbreak.
The first time disliking the person on the mirror.
The first courage to look up, to write again.
The first choice – to come out of the cage.
The first bravery to share my soul.
My anger, my hate, my shame, my hope…my love.
Offering you all that belongs to me,
offering you my 30 years in these pointless words."
