In glimpses and reminisces

This collection is my lyrical diary, the latest chapter in a lifelong conversation with words, memory, and love. There’s more still on the horizon. WELCOME:
In glimpses & reminisces reads like the unfolding of a private diary where the sacred and the jagged sit side by side. At its heart, it’s about the tension between longing to be chosen and learning how to choose yourself. Across these pages, a woman wrestles with love that comes half-given, moments that feel electric but fleeting, and the ache of in-between. Yet instead of silencing that ache, she sets it to rhythm, each poem a fragment of vulnerability, a confession, or a prayer. The story isn’t linear, but cyclical: love enters, falters, tempts, and wounds, and through it all, the poet reveals how heartbreak and hope can live in the same breath.
Beneath the intimacy of these poems runs a deeper current, one of reclamation. We witness a voice moving from mirrors that lie, gambling with tenderness, being cast in supporting roles, into a voice that steadies, insists, and grows sharper. This collection becomes about more than relationships; it’s about resilience, about the way a woman makes art from her scars and softens enough to keep loving again and again. The story ends not in despair but in survival, in lyrical proof that no matter who left or failed, she has chosen to keep writing, to keep feeling, and to keep shining.
