A review by singh_reads_kanwar2
A lonely world and other poems by Himanshu Goel

3.0

This short book contains some emotional words from some good and bad experience of life, author talk from 2 perspective male and female in some, poems are mostly one dimensional , author is bit obsessed with metaphor of outer space and stars, various feeling are explored, but loneliness tops the topics.
These poems are , about dreamers, one who fall in love and failed, for whom sleep is a stranger, one who wait for 22 minutes to get a reply and keep checking phone, vulnerable to be alone, and thinks parties and concerts are the loneliest place ,who find inspiration in tragedies, never take sanity for granted, memories helps and not make us feel lonely, escaping reality, a secret crush, generation of people addicted to phone, letter that never got posted, a long distance friendship, fake smiling photographs, a colourless life, she want a life of her own without restriction, she fall into wrong relationship and now she don't believe in any guy who try to come close to her, a gloomy atmosphere of car and long drive, the one who capture loneliness, Don't ignore who care for you, a meet to old man in park, but not anymore because he is not coming there again, don't judge someone just by there vibe, a coffee lover without sugar, cherish every moment of life, from dream to lost souls life happens, if you write about us, don't just write about us only but do mentioned about us on the last page for rememberance.
