The art of Deception: - A slice of life

"Some nightmares love to stay hidden and eat away at your happiness... but now I've had enough."

"Hello, my beloved reader. Today I open up my heart and mind to you

through consecutive sets of poems written in order of time. These poems

discuss moments of my life that build up into adulthood- my current stage.

The people and places mentioned here are that of imagination but are

based on truthful events and real individuals. These poems are a simplified

bibliography of my small life, Lived. I Wrote this, avoiding therapy in doing so. I took it upon myself to write down the battles and thoughts that drowned my vision and love for life. My strength grows with every turn of a page. May you find some comfort, resolve, or resemblance in what I've highlighted within poetry."

This is the very first publication From Ossama. Q.A. This is a rich, heartfelt booklet; that depicts a life of turmoil, joy, and sadness. Riddled with rhymes and meaningful illustrations that walk you through his journey experienced over two decades.

Escaping complex mental battles to outside experiences; This book encloses it all.

Review by Jay Darkmoore @jay_darkmoore_author (Author)

"I was given a promotional copy of the poetry book to give an honest review.

At first glance, you can tell that the author has painstakingly crafted something truly beautiful, filling the book with original artwork and craftsmanship. A labor of love, and that is prevalent from the onset with the unique drawings, poetry styles and layouts, and even the segments between the pages.

The book itself is a work of art. The tales are carefully crafted, each with their own unique point surrounding love, turmoil, and forgiveness, and let the reader look through the subtleties of what the poet is trying to convey. It is hidden in places, oblivious in others and it makes for an alluring and interesting read.

The poems are both thought-provoking and stir up emotion, speaking to a place inside yourself that you keep locked away, like a magic key into your heart. An undertone of culture and religious lessons push through the stanzas and rhythmical words of the poet.

some poems are short and stand-alone, others a little longer, conveying more emotion, often raw in places, from the author. some are several installments, giving a thrilling experience. A beautiful poetry book from an aspiring poet and writer. If you enjoy poetry, then don't let this one slip you by!

Highly recommend.
