January 2016, I challenged myself, for each and every month, I would write a poem, at least one, maybe more. And so in the on going work of collections, lay inside is the anthology of the poems I have written, am writing and have yet to write (or even chanced upon inspiration) at the point I begin. A poem, for each and every month. Be it written for self-distraction, imagination, venting my own anger and hate or emotions and fear, ah fear, that one is special. But enough of this draggy synopsis, go ahead, read, indulge, criticise... And do enjoy the illustration, even if it may be irrelevant (and pretentious) at times.

A anthology of stories, poems, true inspirations, and everything in between, with relatable topics and topics that aren't much discussed publicly. A book with write-ups where no topic is off limit. The purpose of the book is for the readers to know that their voices and silents cries of help and suffering aren't lonesome. Tales with twists, taboo topics, unashamed and unrestricted freedom to paint the world with our stories, the good and the bad.
And of course, untamed stories meant to connect with people suffering in silence: You Are Not Alone.
