From the pages of Arsh Kaur
"Mesmerizing Acrobat —
No safety, no net.
Injustice of our Kismet."
You're on Your Own
"I ran on the mirror
to ignore my reflection."
You're on Your Own
"Enchantress of the Eternity
flutters my heart every night —
disguised in hope, as she might."
You're on Your Own
"Freedom attracts the brave.
Freedom favours the lovers."
The Summer I Found My Wings
"The mountains overflow with perception —
the perception which takes away the illusion."
The Summer I Found My Wings
"Love will be the reason."
Arsh Kaur
Readers & Recognition
"Arsh Kaur writes like someone trying to rescue the human heart from everything that taught it to go numb. What makes her voice compelling is the way she treats love as daily labor rather than decoration. Trust yourself, soften without surrendering — even a wounded world can begin again."
Elham Sarikhani
Writer, Substack
"New Beginnings feels like a quiet companion for those learning to return to themselves gently. There is no pressure to become something else overnight. Only an invitation to pause, notice, and begin again with awareness. That is a rare gift."
Bharat Mansukhani
Writer of In Quiet Spaces, Substack
"Arsh's debut work is a beautifully compelling, and remarkably honest collection. Each piece captures the many dynamics of your 20s — the realizations, the appreciations, the devastations, and everything in between."
Brooklyn Hollinger
Verified Buyer
"My favourite poem from You're on Your Own is 'Dad' — it has a painful feeling of wanting to be closer yet being pushed to a distance unwillingly. Short, few words, and yet just enough."
Mahek Mehrotra
Writer of Just Mahek Things, Substack
"Arsh Kaur's work captures the raw beauty of the human experience with unflinching honesty."
