Almost But Never Mine

What do you do with a love that has nowhere to go?

Almost But Never Mine is not a book of poetry; it is a brutal excavation of the human heart. It is the silent scream of the one who stayed when everyone else left, and the quiet sigh of the one who was always the rehearsal but never the show. Across fifty haunting entries, this collection explores the devastating territory of being just enough to be kept around, but never enough to be chosen.

This is the sanctuary for the placeholders. The protectors who fixed broken wings only to watch them fly toward someone else. The architects who built palaces they were never allowed to live in. Each page captures a raw, cinematic moment of unrequited devotion... From the cold sting of a shared umbrella that doesnt cover you, to the hollow ache of seeing your sacred memories gifted to a stranger.

Through gut-wrenching prose and soul-piercing Ghazals, this book gives a voice to the invisible. It turns the most private of tragedies into a shared anthem for the broken and the brave. If you have ever been the secondary character in your own love story, if you have ever bled into the margins of someone elses life, or if you are still waiting for a train that was never scheduled to arrive... This book is your mirror.

Step inside and find the words for the pain you thought you had to carry alone. Because some loves are not meant to be lived; they are only meant to be remembered.
