Bio
My first love is poetry — it’s like a desperate need to write, to free up space in my mind, to escape the constant noise in my head. Most of the time the poems write themselves — I’m just the conduit holding the metaphorical pen.

Deal Breaker
A young bride, excited for her special day, arrives at the church. Inside her husband-to-be awaits. She has arrived early to give herself time to practice the vows she has written for her soulmate and she cannot wait to hear the vows that he has written especially for her.

Mundane Simplicity
This poem has been written as part of Sahil Patel's Lifeline's (Medium) poetry prompts. Today's prompt is: I invite you to reflect on the simple yet profound aspects of your life that you may take for granted. It can be a warm cup of tea, a comfortable cosy blanket, a favourite book or a gentle breeze. I want you to write an ode to one of these simple joys in your life. Let your words celebrate the beauty and significance of the seemingly mundane, reminding us all to cherish the little moments that bring us happiness and contentment.
