Abuse, be of any kind, is ruinous. Physical abuse is usually evident with all the bruises and scars but emotional abuse goes glossed over for years. It's often confused with simple blames or some dry sarcasm and could be more destructive and insidious because the abuser is often eluding and always making the victim presume that he/she is at fault and unless one has outlived an emotional abuse, it’s quite abstruse for one to believe what it means to fight those daily battles with someone who’s nothing more than a Black Hole, someone you just can’t feel connected with no matter how hard you try. The damages stay forever.

This book is a collection of poems that talks about not just some vague and restless disquiets but also about the wounds of the heart and scars of the mind, poems that talk about the constant mental struggles and a desperate but doubtful fight for daily survival, poems about not just what is lost but also about the priceless lessons learned, poems about believing in oneself and making an effort to live the life of one’s dreams.

Every still-life photograph arises from a silent colloquy…

Whispers from the Edge of Light is an intimate collection of reflections born in the quiet spaces between seeing and creating. Moving through conversations with light and shadow, forgotten objects, memory, silence, and the poetry concealed within the everyday, these meditations invite readers to slow down and embrace the overlooked.

Penned in the moments of quiet contemplation, this collection invites artists, photographers, and anyone drawn to beauty to linger a little longer… to recognise that the most profound stories often reside within the most unassuming things, waiting patiently to be seen.
