Kaur's poignant verses weave together the complexities of life and love, ensnaring the heartstrings of anyone who dares to dive deep into her words. With every stroke of her pen, she paints masterpieces that resonate with the raw and tender facets of womanhood. Her poems are mirrors in which we see our deepest vulnerabilities reflected, and yet, they stand as a celebration of the strength that blossoms from them. They are a call to women everywhere to embrace their own stories, to write their truths boldly and without fear. Rupi Kaur offers more than words; she gives voice to the silent whispers of the soul.

Men in general judge more from appearances than from reality. All men have eyes, but few have the gift of penetration.
