The Space Between Breaths - Zakir Hossain

'The Space Between Breaths' is a journey through the fractures of modern existence - where the noise of the world collides with the silence within.

These poems move through unrest, isolation, longing, and awareness, capturing moments where the external world and inner life become indistinguishable. A man walks through a day that quietly collapses. A drop of rain becomes a tear. A voice searches for meaning in a world saturated with noise, yet hollow at its core.

Structured across five movements - The Noise of the World, The Fractured Self, Love, Body, Longing, Stillness and Seeing, and The Void - the collection traces a subtle but powerful shift: from chaos to fragmentation, from longing to stillness, from identity to dissolution.

Minimal, reflective, and at times unsettling, 'The Space Between Breaths' does not offer conclusions. It opens a space - where the reader may pause, observe, and encounter what remains when everything else falls away.
