End of an Eclipse

They say to describe a poem is to betray the poem but how else do I explain this offering of ribs and rain? The Ends of an Eclipse is an autopsy stitched in sonnets tracing the seven classical stages of love from Urdu literature- Dilkashi (Attraction), Uns (Infatuation), Ishq (Love), Aqeedat (Reverence), Ibadat (Devotion), Junoon (Madness), and Maut (Death) - not as a journey upward, but as a slow and deliberate unraveling. Like an eclipse, it begins in light honey-warm, full of longing and darkens with every page, until what remains is not just shadow, but the cold stillness after the sun forgets to return.
