Behind Her Eyes

There are times when love and war are at their peak when death and life unite when everyone praises the moon but never reflects that the ultimate cause of its light is merely the sun. This book is for those who believe, who are just like me. They look out the window with blank eyes. They've been in love, they've bitter secrets. They are lost or just missing somebody. Transgressions and feelings of love and pain are penned with an elixir darker than blood. 'Behind Her Eyes' is a collection of poems for those who are betrayed by feelings, for those who are heartbroken, and for those who are in search of true love. Feelings are versified in a way that will allow you to breathe again and heal your scars. Afreen has described Behind Her Eyes as, "Writing was an escape from reality, panic, and melancholia. The writing was a sanative for me - a labyrinth which saved me from monsters," In explanation, the author revealed that she writes about what broke her and how she fought mental health challenges, such as anxiety and depression. She tells how she got back on her feet. It was during the lockdown time that the now 18-year-old girl realized the importance of publishing her poems and short stories she had been writing since she was 8. The idea of inspiring people occurred to her when Bestselling Authors encouraged her to get her works published.
