Samiya Akram is a student and a simple girl whose life involves nothing more than a boring school, rigid schedules, and fantasizing about having more cats than she can handle. She writes poetry as an escapism just as she reads novels almost half the time of her day. 'the sunflower' is her second book in which she uses her imagination to create yet another story for the people to read. She believes that in the tapestry of her verses, readers will discover a world where emotions are raw and experiences are vivid. 'the sunflower' follows Samiya's debut work 'Heart and Soul' which is another collection of poetry.
