Emotions Are Not Weakness

Emotions Are Not Weakness is a poetic exploration of what it means to feel deeply in a world that glorifies control. Through 21 poems on strength, sensitivity, and self-discovery, Sahil Srivastava bridges psychology and poetry to show that emotion is not fragility—it’s our greatest proof of being alive. Each poem moves from breaking to healing, guiding readers toward acceptance, courage, and emotional balance. This book is an ode to those who have felt too much and learned that their feelings are their greatest strength.
