An interview session with Sameer Khan.

Hello everyone! Good evening folks.

It’s Sumith here, the writer of this blog who entertains you with his writeups and reviews. Before I end up doing any further discussions, let me cut to the chase by introducing the guest I’ve today with us, ‘Sameer Khan’ an amazing poet who has touched countless hearts through his amazing and exceptional poems that vibrates the very essence of our souls.

He’s today along with us for his debut book ‘Eerie edges’ which has been successfully published.

His poems are captivating, engages the reader to travel to a different world altogether making them feel surreal and lost in the imaginative world he reels for us. His writing stirs, rebukes the suppressed feelings in us, as they reciprocate with the immense feelings emanating from within us. The readers pour their overwhelming love in the form of words and blessings.  

Let’s begin the telephonic interview session.

1. Hi Sameer, how are you feeling now?

Ans. Hey Sumith, I’m doing good. Hope you’re doing fine.

2. So, tell me something about yourself.

Ans. People usually perceive their life as how they feel, but when you’re a poet you don’t see things normally, you visualize and feel them differently.  Most of the times, we think about ourselves how we feel! But the intrinsic question that arises is ‘how things seem to my eyes.’ I see people and things metaphorically, I think of them as metaphors for my writings. Each day seems different to me, as I look around for inspirations to write.

About myself, well I’m a student of computer science engineering from integral university. Writing has always been my passion and I've been fortunate enough to publish a book, name " Eerie Edges ". This book is all about emotions and feelings, which one finds so hard to crack or express with others. I dedicated this book to people who all are suffering from clinical depression and anxiety.

My debut book ‘Eerie edges’ is available at all around the globe

3. Tell us something about your upcoming debut book ‘Eerie edges.’

It used to cure their pain, even if it meant for a moment, apart from the copious number of medicines available to intake, but sharing meant an effective way to lighten the self-build burden, a means to heal oneself.

The book also reminds me of my past, because I’ve been through depression as well. So, I know exactly how it feels to be victimized, the pain he has felt, the void left in their lives. It is again journey of a person’s life, the various stages of life and how he faces depression at some point of their lives.

The book is divided into many parts, 1^st part consists ‘poems’ which are pain-oriented, pain differs from one person to another. The reader reading this book will associate themselves with the pain he has felt in his life and connect with it instantly. The pain is completely relatable with his past.

The 2^nd part consists of ‘proses.’ Once the reader identifies the suffering he has endured, the prose helps him connect with his feelings and help him heal. It also encourages him to move on in his life.

The 3^rd part is about ‘quotes.’ It comprises of various motivational quotes. After identification of specific pain, he needs a helping hand, a rope to climb onto, the thought that occurs ‘what needs to be done next’ is what is described effectively in this part.

The 4^th part is ‘tiny tales.’ It consists of ‘graveyar
