NOTES
Counting the Days is a deeply personal and evocative poetry collection that chronicles the author's emotional journey through the tapestry of life's experiences. Divided into introspective "days," each poem captures a poignant moment, raw feeling, or universal truth about love, loss, resilience, and self-discovery. The collection explores themes such as the fragility of relationships, the resilience of the human spirit, and the complexities of mental health. It oscillates between tender reflections on love and searing meditations on loneliness and despair. Poems like "Day 22" confront the weight of suicidal ideation with empathetic resolve, while others, such as "Day 30," express a childlike yearning for unconditional love. With a vivid blend of vulnerability and strength, the poet paints moments of heartbreak, the enduring search for identity, and the quiet victories of overcoming pain. The book's preface and final disclaimer underscore the cathartic purpose of these works, inviting readers to find solace in shared struggles and encouragement in perseverance. The narrative voice resonates with honesty and relatability, making this collection a heartfelt companion for anyone navigating their own emotional landscape
