Behind The Book
About the Author
Hi, I’m Tooba Irshaad, a storyteller captivated by the quiet storms of the human soul. At 19, I’m navigating the vibrant crossroads of youth, literature, and an unrelenting curiosity for the intricate threads of human emotions and behavior. My poetry delves into longing, relationships, acceptance, and the unspoken truths that shape us. Through my words, I aim to reflect life’s raw beauty and remind you that even in the depths of complexity, there’s always something profoundly human to hold onto.
Excerpts
Read a little of the book.
I am not what they want me to be
A reflection of their expectations, not me
I am the master of my own destiny
Unapologetically me, wild and free
But darling, perfection’s a fleeting lie
A pale star in an endless sky
It’s the cracks that let the light seep through,
Revealing the masterpiece that’s you
For in the mirror, I now see,
Not just the child, nor only me-
But all I was, and all I’ll be:
A warrior whole, at last set free.
