The Sound of Falling Stars

About the Book: The Sound of the Falling Starsthis title was born from my fascination with physics and astronomy but also from something deeper. Stars dont truly fallthey burn they shatter they turn to dust and yet in their dying moments they light up the sky. Isnt that what life is too? A series of quiet combustions fleeting but brilliant each moment collapsing into the next? This book is my attempt to capture those fragments of light before they fade into nothingness. Life is so unpredictable. If I asked my 10-year-old self whether he believed I would one day write poetry he would laugh in disbelief. And yet here I am todaywriting poems capturing moments turning thoughts into words. Somewhere along the way I realized that poetry isnt just about rhyme or rhythm; its about feeling about noticing the things that often go unnoticed. The chief beauty of this book does not lie in its literary grandeur or in the weight of knowledge it carries. Instead it rests in its simple truthfulness. Other works may surpass it in depth of thought in mastery over human nature or in originality and size. But for sheer relentless honestyraw and unfilteredI believe nothing could outmatch it. This book does not follow a single rigid theme. It meanders through the everydaythrough love and loss through the quiet wonders of nature through the complexities of human existence and the infinite expanse of the universe. It is for everyonewhether you are a hopeless romantic like me a thinker searching for answers or someone just beginning their literary journey. At times these words may challenge you. They might make you pause make you question make you uncomfortable with the truths they reveal. But in those moments of unease I hope you also find comfort. I hope this book becomes a mirror reflecting your own emotions your own experiences in ways you never expected. Every piece in this book holds a part of mea thought a memory a quiet whisper of something once felt. I send it out into the world with the hope that somewhere somehow it finds a home in your heart too. And if by the end of it you hear the sound of your own falling starsthen perhaps just perhaps this book has done what it was meant to do.
