Description
Have you ever winked at a star? Of course, everyone has. But, has a star ever winked back? Well, in this poetry collection ‘If I You and We Were’ by Furqan Ahmed it does wink back: the last puff of least wanted goodbye, the first ray of unanticipated joy, the whisper of love in the right ear—other times, deaf and dumb—the simultaneous fall of seasons, the rebirth of nature, and unapologetically, marching life.
I am a 28 year old Poet from Pakistan who lost his tongue to the words of this book some months ago— the months are weightier than two dozen of oranges. Why do I write poetry, you may ask? To light up a world with my ashes.

You know its a good book, when you keep reading it even after finishing it. for me this is that book.
this book talks about about pain, heart break, loneliness and longing. the writing is simple but it has many layers and with every layer one discoveres, he gets more and more in love with it. the way writer has describe pain and emotion is unmatched.
it talks about young immature love and how if affects lives. how we let our egos eat us alive.
the writing is so raw and honest that i resonate to it so much.
The author’s words painted vivid pictures and evoked strong emotions. Each poem felt like a journey through the rollercoaster of love and its complexities. From the euphoria of new love to the ache of heartbreak, the book explored the entire spectrum of emotions.
It was like the author had experienced every emotion themselves and poured it all into their poetry. I found myself nodding along and feeling understood with every page I turned.
If you’re into poetry that delves into the depths of the human heart and explores the complexities of love, pain, longing, and heartbreak, I highly recommend giving this book a read. It’s a beautiful and cathartic experience.
