This is actually more of a 3,5.
This collection is hard to rate because some of the poems I really liked while some of them felt either too abstract or specific for me to connect with. There were also few poems that stood out to me personally. However, I do feel that the writing style is very special and made me fall in love with lines more than the poems themselves. The title poem ππ©π’π³π¬π΄ πͺπ― π΅π©π¦ ππͺπ·π¦π³π΄ remains my favorite. The following quote is what made me look up this poem along with this book in the first place. I'm excited to see how ππ³πͺπ¨π©π΅ ππ¦π’π₯ ππ©πͺπ―π¨π΄ will resonate with me compared to this one.
Β« I cannot tell anymore when a door opens or closes,
I can only hear the frame saying, ππ’ππ¬ π΅π©π³π°πΆπ¨π©. Β»
