Bittersweet Memories

Let these words guide you home, 

Let them be your last ray, 

When everything turns into dust, 

Let them keep your heart safe. 


The past is dead and gone; all that have stayed alive are memories in the form of words. Bittersweet Memories is a collection of quotes, micro poems and prose by Parul Nigam. It includes pain, angst and so much love coming straight from the heart of an 18-year-old girl. The book is a refuge for the restless souls out there who are constantly battling with the society and with themselves. This debut is a ray of hope for the people who feel that overcoming their past is impossible. It is a reminder that no matter how bad you’ve been hurt, there’s always light waiting for you to reach the end of the tunnel.
