The Art of Grieving: Poetry for the soul QUOTES

1 " You write poems with your fingertips
And I keep listening to the songs written on my skin
By some distant dream, similar words
But the verses never meet... "

― Sanhita Baruah , The Art of Grieving: Poetry for the soul

2 " She awaits the rain like a writer embraces metaphors,
A drizzle isn't for the child who dances in the storm.
Of rain that washes away the petrichor it brings,
A downpour of a hail of bullets, and she calls it spring. "

― Sanhita Baruah , The Art of Grieving: Poetry for the soul

3 " I've heard you say so many a time
That I know just the right words to say, just the right lines to rhyme...

Today it's been 7 years since we last met
I have learnt to say just the wrong words, just the lines you hate.... "

― Sanhita Baruah , The Art of Grieving: Poetry for the soul

4 " I'd rather be not the light in your life
The bright day might make me obscure
I'd rather be the cold darkness
For it remains, unseen, uncertain and unsure "

― Sanhita Baruah , The Art of Grieving: Poetry for the soul
