The release of How I See You by Mayur Rathod introduces readers to an intimate and deeply personal poetic journey shaped by connection, presence, and shared moments. This collection did not emerge as a carefully planned literary project; instead, it evolved naturally—poem by poem—within the quiet flow of lived interactions. That organic growth gives the book its rare authenticity and emotional immediacy.
Each poem in How I See You functions as a lens, offering an unfiltered way of seeing another person. Rathod avoids idealized portrayals, choosing instead to present honest impressions—capturing the light hidden in a casual phrase, the weight carried in a pause, and the subtle beauty of ordinary, fleeting moments. The poems feel conversational yet profound, revealing how deeply observation and emotion can intertwine.
What makes this collection distinctive is its collaborative spirit. The verses are shaped by response and reflection, demonstrating how poetry can bridge two minds in real time and transform shared experience into art. Readers may find themselves reflected in these lines, reminded of their own relationships and of the quiet power of being truly seen.
How I See You is not just a book of poems; it is an invitation—to notice more, to feel deeper, and to return the act of seeing with equal honesty and care.
