    About this ebook

    The poems in this collection reflect the state of mind of a human being answering to some experiences faced in life. A subjective trend is embraced to give way to a downpour of feelings and emotions. Growing into a philosopher, the poet finds a sea of personal views on different subjects.

    These poems may also have a universal appeal. Readers may understand the feelings in the poems through empathy.

    Though they are subjective, feelings and emotions remain objective as people face events that make them doomed to follow similar trends psychologically.
