Farah Atika Releases New Poetry Book

MANSOURA, Egypt

Farah Atika speaks to the joys, challenges, trials and triumphs of life in her relatable new poetry collection, "Pieces of Life" (published by Trafford Publishing).

"'Pieces of Life' is a compilation of poems that ranges from what I feel inside me to what I see surrounding me," Atika says. "The best part is when I present a poem to my close ones; everyone relates or shares a different story behind the same poem."

With subject matter ranging from grief, loss, despair and procrastination, to hope, nature, love and family, "Pieces of Life" is designed to appeal to readers from all walks of life. The book also includes several short stories in which Atika reflects on experiences from her childhood and discusses her writing process.

Atika's poem, "Don't Leave Me Stunned," featured below in excerpt:

"We all have faith in the Only One.
I beg forgiveness for all I've done.
The winding roads.
The unripe sun.
Our crazy path is still undone.

Don't leave me stunned."
