You Tolerated Weight Of Their Criticism
While Limping Under Crutches Of Idealism
You Put Up With Their Diabolical Behavior
Until You Were Blinded From Seeing Beyond
You Endured Their Burns, Cuts & Wounds
Until There Wasn’t Enough Flesh Left To Be Torn
You Bore Their Torture & Harassment
Until They Sucked Last Drop Of Your Blood
You Were Not Like This Before
But Yes You Did It All
Not Cause You Were Compelled To
But Cause You Believed In Expecting A Change
Change So They Show Their Good One Day
But Didn’t You Observe Their Fangs Coated With Hypocrisy
And Claws Of Vile Ready To Dig In
Dipping Mind In Baths Of Narcissism
Simmering Self Love Over Flames Of Conceit
Change Was The Last Thing They Thought Of
Now You’re Someone Different
Someone Who Won’t Give In Easily Again

Dr. Asma Mohammadi is an Indian doctor, writer, and poet living in California. Ever since childhood, her mounting interest in language was evident as she penned articles for school journals. Her profound fondness for poetry evolved growing up, and she began exploring her writing skills.
Her poetry has an essence of feminism, equality, mental illnesses, psychology, stress-related disorders, and many more such topics.
A compilation of rapture, despair, longing, self-love, triumph, and loss, her debut book ‘Soar Beyond Skies’ is a collection of poems chronicling the challenges of contemporary life such as inequality, social criticism, peer pressure, anxiety, depression, sexism, displacement, racism, objectification, breaking stereotypes and many more.
Smashing the shell of confinement and taking on the cliched perspectives, her book takes you on a journey that traverses the stagnant plains, the eye-catchy mountains, the winding roads, and the pit stops in life.
It is split into seven sections namely sweet (joy), bitter (fear), sour (grief), salty (hope), insipid (apathy), spicy (ecstasy), and pungent (criticism). With flavors of practicality as well as fantasy, it engraves love on the minds reflecting on the vital aspects of life.
She delves into solitude life to offer elements of reality and bitter truth. Her life revolves around various components of living fearlessly, evading judgments, and voicing opinions when needed.
Asma is an active poet and writer on her Instagram page dr.asmapoetry where she started unboxing her emotions three years ago for the world to read, feel, and relate to. She believes in the medicinal power of words, and her verses are meant to paint hearts with compassion, purity, and love. She enjoys playing tennis, designing greeting cards, traveling, and creative writing in her leisure hours.
Two broken people fix each other
Like mirrored halves of hope put together
