The Book
Midnight Moaning is an anthology of poems which captures lovers at night. It is an attempt to make sense of the maddening and clichéd word ‘Love’ and the emotions that it stirs in lovers in the wee hours of nights. From joy to hurt, love to lust, separation to reconciliation, despising to love-making, ego to surrender, fights to friendship, togetherness to loneliness, ‘honeymoon phase’ to love gone sour; from butterflies in the stomach to gut wrenching heartbreak, Midnight Moaning satiates every lover’s thirst for poetry. The poems are about real people and raw feelings. Midnight Moaning reflects soul-baring expressions of many a lover’s love stories confessed to the poet.
