The Weight of Unheld Hands

In The Weight of Unheld Hands Khaneez Fathima—author of Shades of Suspicion—pours aching intimacy into verse. These poems map the silent territories between souls: unspoken love cultural divides maternal sacrifice and friendships that outlast distance. With haunting imagery (raindrops like pearls trains at stations of fear 2 a.m. coffees) Khaneez gives voice to longing’s weight and resilience’s quiet light. Born on Instagram [@khaneez_penningpassion] and polished in Writer’s Pocket 2024 this collection turns personal wounds into universal art—for anyone who’s loved lost or loved through loss. A debut poetry mosaic as tender as it is unflinching.
