My first ebook of poems!

So finally, I have taken my first baby step in publishing. Here is my first free share and download ebook - 'My Heart is Your Brothel'. It's a collection of poems on infatuation, crush, love, call it what you may.

The book can be downloaded in .mobi, .epub and PDF formats. To download, however, you have to share the book link via Facebook or Twitter. To do that, click on the green 'Share and Download' button that you see when the page opens, allow Papyrus Editor to access your Facebook/Twitter profile and share the link. Once that is done, the green button on the ebook page will change to 'Instant Download', clicking which you can get the files.

I hope whoever reads this post will also download the ebook (it's just 18 pages long, so don't hesitate!), read it, share it and leave comments for me, the poet, either here, or to my twitter handle @namithavr.

Happy reading!

In Awe

My fingers smell of cigarettes

smoked with you;

My mind is rambling on the

conversation we shared;

My heart is hoping

to see you just once more —

you say I am infatuated.

But I am merely in awe of you. 

Silk threads

silk threads

are uninspiring;

find me some jute,

some coarse hands,

nothing cute –

let me create

marvels in browns and greys;

silk threads

are too pretty,

too delicate

for me to play with,

find me some coir,

some raw strength –

let me make you beds and mats;

silk threads

are brittle, expensive,

find me some cotton,

some patient minds –

let me make you things to wear,

summer, winter or rain;

silk threads

are not for me.

find yourself a man

who will care. 

He can't let go

He rolled her words upon his tongue

a satin stream of love

rolling into his brain;

He hugged her dreams,

he kissed her hopes,

a barrage of memories

drowning him in pain.

How the Day and Night Came About

Twilight stole into the sky

kidnapped the sun,

and brought in the rule of the moon.

Dawn, that knight in shining armour,

rescued the sun and restored his reign.

The sun and moon liked their game --

thence came the rules of day and night.

Wounds

She Touched Me Where No Man Ever Did And Found Wounds That Noone Ever Did.
