Subtle Echoes

By Tehmeena Salam

Subtle Echoes is a collection of poetries and open letters. Exploring through the depths of one's emotions, peaking into the realities of love and betrayal, freeing the caged memories and daunting upon the scenarios overthought; this book remains the choice for many unsaid emotions and unexplained moods. A book for the ones who want to be understood yet remain quiet, who want to relate their situations, the ones who are looking for the ray of hopes and positivities among the negativites. A book that tries to fathom the echoes of a subtle heart.

Her Fictive World

Feared of foes,

Faraway formed her fictive fantasies,

Frozen fountains,

Frigid forts,

Frosty figures,

Thus....fairytale foretold.

Foggy filth of fraud faded.

Her fictive fatherland foresaw fraternity.

Fall of faithlessness,

Freedom from fracas,

And Felicity feasted with fatalism.

Fictive yet forelonged for.
