    About this ebook

    "From within perfect darkness I have learned to shine."

    Heartbreak can leave even the strongest of men scarred. Like Icarus, I too flew too high and fell. That downward journey tore the fibre of my being and shredded my soul. The gauntlet of love should never be underestimated.

    However, I had to get up again and rise like a phoenix from its proverbial ashes. And like a phoenix, I took to flight!

    This is a poetic account of the journey I had to go through and a tribute to becoming a better man regardless.

      MY BELOVED ANGEL, I am nearly mad about you, as much as one can be mad: I cannot bring together two ideas that you do not interpose yourself between them. I can no longer think of nothing but you. In spite of myself, my imagination carries me to you.
