Soul Spoken by Chaitali Nath
3.0

[gifted by Chaitali Nath in exchange with an honest review]

This is my first ever poetry collection and I'm really wondering why I didn't read poetry sooner! This book contains many poems regarding school, romance, growing up, religion and many more interesting topics.

I had such an awesome time reading this, I found myself really relating to the author, especially in subjects such as friendship. I think C. Nath has a very nice view of the world and of herself and she's written a raw yet soft and calming collection of poems that very accurately depict the turmoil a person feels at least once in his/her life.

There are many poems that I returned to, because I wanted to read them more carefully and even contemplate their meaning and think how this or that poem applies to my life and current circumstances. I've singled out some lines from a poem that I really loved and felt them deep in my heart because they are so so true! Those lines are:

"Newton's third law of motion
I don't know why it doesn't apply to human emotion
If every action has an equal and opposite reaction
Then why does the loving soul not get love back for its satisfaction?"

It just spoke to me and I read that poem again and again because I felt that it really touched my soul and I loooved that about this book!

All in all "Soul Spoken" is a very nice poetry collection, that made me stop and think and contemplate not only my life, but universal matters as well and I definitely recommend it to everyone!
