Some books sit quietly beside your heart. Lanterns for the Dark by @rheaa_noor is one of those rare companions. Reading it felt like holding a warm cup on a cold night, like someone gently placing a hand on mine and saying, “You’re allowed to feel this. You’re allowed to heal.” Rheaa Noor writes with a softness that doesn’t shy away from pain. Her poems are not polished masks; they are open windows — raw, wind-swept, honest. She speaks to the wounded parts of us with the tenderness of someone who has sat with her own darkness long enough to understand its language. These poems explore the kind of heartbreak that lingers in your bones — grief with thorns, love with shadows, memories that stain. But Noor doesn’t leave you in the ache. With every page, she lights a small lantern — one for self-love, one for courage, one for choosing yourself even when your heart protests, one for believing that gentler love will come. If you’ve ever lost yourself and found yourself again in pieces, if you’re learning to hold your vulnerability without shame — this book will sit with you, quietly, faithfully. And sometimes, that’s all we need.
