Reverie

This book won’t change your life - but it might make you feel a little more at home in the one you already have. Reverie is a poetry collection woven from late-night thoughts accidental epiphanies and the kind of truth that slips out when you’re mid-breakdown in a cooking class. It’s for anyone who laughs too hard at memes cries quietly in bathroom stalls spirals with a touch of drama and still manages to show up - eyeliner slightly smudged but heart stubbornly beating. These poems aren’t here to hand out solutions or tie your feelings into neat bows. They’re here to keep you company while you figure things out to sit beside you in the messy in-between moments and remind you that you’re not alone in them. Sometimes you don’t need answers - you just need someone (or something) to stay. And maybe that’s enough. Bithika Mohanty is a collector of stories—real imagined and the ones hidden between words people don’t say out loud. She listens closely not just to conversations but to pauses glances and the quiet weight in the room. An observer by nature she notices the small details others might miss: the way someone stirs their coffee when they’re nervous the half-smile before a goodbye the laughter that hides a little ache.
