You are at The Singularity of your space-time. Don't you feel it? As you get reduced down to infinity. You are now no more than One singular thought. -s i n g u l a r i t y- SINGULARITY is the third poetry collection by Sarah (Subhanki), curated out of confusion of a teenage mind. The collection comes out to be visceral, ingenious and visually incongruous - it was never meant to be of perfect rhyme or structure. The author makes sure you question your existence every time you complete the collection. Happy reading!

══════════◄••❀••►═════════ M𝐨𝐯𝐞 through the quiet corners of human emotion-sorrow, hope, love, and loss. T𝐡𝐞𝐬𝐞 verses are not just a reflection of one soul, but of many. They carry the feelings we hold in silence-the ones we do not always know how to name. T𝐡𝐢𝐬 collection begins where most people stop - in the dark, in the unnamed, in the weight of what we carry alone. It rises through every corner of what it means to feel deeply, until what remains is not the night that came for you, but the burning soul it could not extinguish. T𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡 shadows and light, through the darkest nights and the warmest dawns, this collection asks one quiet question: what if the radiance you've been searching for was always yours? ══════════◄••❀••►═════════

It is common knowledge among those almost departed that you can invite the Grim Reaper to your last meal. If he accepts, make sure the meal is made by no one but you, and if he likes it, he may grant you an extension. But if a morsel is left, you must accept his decision and go with him.
