In the moments too brief to name and my silences too deep to describe, these poems took root. This book is a collection of those quiet moments. Simple, honest, and unpolished, like conversations with a best friend. This is not poetry that seeks to impress. The poems don't wear masks or chase any applause from you. It simply sits beside you on a bus drive or during a coffee break or in the tired evening and listens. Whether you've always loved poetry or are just peeking in, these verses invite you to slow down, feel deeply, and maybe remember something you thought you'd forgotten. Because poetry isn't about any performance it's about a presence.
