❝ she won't be a damsel in distress nor will she be someone as important. but she'll be there to redress your wounds and swab every hurting scar clean. she'll scare the hell out of you, but she'll keep your demons at bay. she won't cry pretty, but at least she'll try to cry all of the guilt off. and she isn't that easy on the eyes but her words will cling to you like a battle armour, fending, protecting. she can be your savior if you let her. ❞ → #5 in poetry [12/28/19] → featured in 'Summer Workshop 2016' as 'Talk of the Workshop'

A collection of poems grown from myth and mind. Gods, monsters, and mortal men in a variety of poetic forms. Narratives and allegories as deeply rooted in the psyches of modern humanity, as in the civilizations that planted those seeds. Songs from deep within our souls to celebrate and lament, to reflect and to heed. From Arthurian heroes like Galahad and Merlin to misunderstood monsters like Medusa and Grendel, each poem tells a tale. The turmoils and challenges of each archetype provide insights into our own lives. The lessons learned span the range of human experience. The songs sung aim for our hearts and souls and strive to entertain. They are written for us all to appreciate, but most of all, to enjoy.

‷ᵃʷᵃʳᵈˢ ʷⁱⁿⁿⁱⁿᵍ ᵖᵒᵉᵗʳʸ ᶜᵒˡˡᵉᶜᵗⁱᵒⁿ‴ From the lessons I've learnt, To the love that I felt- Spread the words, In the verses within. From the moments so fast, To myself and my past- Run the rhymes, And themes within. From Hellos, which will pass, To Goodbyes, which will last- Form the words, Into poems within. So come in, Have a look. And discover the world, Of the words, which take cover- Within.

‪BOHEMIA 🌷🌼‬ ‪An abstraction of creativity. ‬ ‪Deeply rooted in the harrowing aspects of the human condition, my twelfth poetry collection, 'BOHEMIA' is a darker yet stark, poetic exploration of nature versus nurture through a poetry collection rife in love, loneliness, trauma and grief. ‬ Bohemia is a landscape; be it physical or emotional. Bohemia is a world where love goes to die only to be born again on Earth. Bohemia is a cityscape where sadness crystallises and transforms into a kind of happiness; to shed light back on Earth. There is a sense of hope rooted in the soils of Bohemia. It's up to you to find it. 🌺⛅️
