What do you need to put into words?

I don’t know if these poems are any good, but I like them, and writing them has made me happy.

If these thoughts and reflections might help you be a little more at peace, live a little happier, or make you realise you’re not alone in feeling something, then that’s enough.

Thank you for reading.

This collection of poems explores the intricate tapestry of human connection and self-discovery. From the first flutterings of new love to the ache of grief, each piece attempts to capture a moment of raw emotion or profound realisation (usually from therapy or someone wiser). The poems delve into relationships, nature, family, mental health, and our endless inner journeys. At times melancholic, at others quietly optimistic, the works flow together in search of understanding ourselves and each other a little better.
