Description

Silence Forlorn is a deeply moving collection of poems that explores love, loss, healing, and the search for self in a world that rarely pauses. Through moments both ordinary and profound, a cup of coffee, a fading memory, the stillness of mountains. Aarathi Bellary transforms lived experiences into reflections that linger. Her words are simple yet piercing, inviting readers to slow down and look inward.

At its core, this book is about silence, not emptiness, but a space where grief softens, resilience takes root, and meaning quietly unfolds. For anyone who has loved, lost, or found themselves in the in-between, Silence Forlorn is a companion you will return to again and again.

Aarathi Bellary is a doctor by profession and a poet by instinct, writing from the spaces where life feels most deeply lived. Her poetry is rooted in everyday moments, conversations, silences, grief, love, and quiet revelations that often go unnoticed but shape who we become. Her first book, Billion Suns Rising, resonated with readers for its emotional honesty and simplicity. With her second collection, Silence Forlorn, she invites readers into a more intimate journey one that moves through healing, longing, identity, and spiritual reflection. When she is not practicing medicine, Aarathi writes, observes, and finds meaning in the fleeting beauty of life, often with a cup of coffee in hand.
