The book itself contains a decade of the author’s life condensed into 100 interlinking poems , which increase in length and complexity as you follow their inspirational journey from working-class beginnings to the student halls of Oxford . Today’s sunburn marks a new dawn As grass-stained wings flutter and fly, The yolks of my butterfly eyes Now immune to the almighty sun. Its death I may take, Its future I may live. How did it come to be? That I of all Shadow Walkers Can see the light at the end of my life – A New Dawn Every poem in Dear Eternity has been purposefully written to contain hidden clues that when put together reveal the true identity of Eternity unique to each reader. In addition to the main three themes of love , death , and nature – the book also references greek and norse mythology , religion and spirituality , as well as disciplines of physics and geography . ‘I hope by sharing the unspeakable moments of my airbrushed life that others will feel less alone in their grief, knowing even after the death of their childhoods, they can continue to live.’ – Muzzammil Khan – ASIN: 1068679328 | ISBN13: 9781068679322 | ISBN-13: 978-1068679322
