Memory Castle

By Akila Aditi Goel

This poetry collection contains 77 poems.

As I keep my memories in my "Memory Castle", the subject matter in this work ranges from the love I have for my family and friends, references to my Hindu and Indian cultural roots, the contents of various whimsical daydreams, my medical school and engineering school journeys, references to stories and other works that inspire me, to the darkest nightmares - dealing with my struggles with mental health . All of these topics are referenced, but seen under a blurry lens - many are focused more on the fantasy of space and the beauty of nature.
As you might be able to tell by now, the pieces in this collection cover a vast array of vibes. Pride and fear, nature and existentialism. I didn't choose a particular style for all of these poems - in fact most of them have their own self contained structures and stories.
The only consistency in the collection is that every poem stems from a memory - whether it was real or not real, all of the memories are strung together to tell a story, and that's how Memory Castle was built.
