My Journey in Poetry by Mohammed Arshad Amin

My Journey in Poetry

I never seek for a name in poetry

I simply write to ease the heaviness within me

My late night becomes moments of quiet creation

A moment when thoughts turn into words.

Fame has never been my goal

I write without expecting exaltation

Yet, every kind of word from a reader

Every acknowledgment of my lines

Surprise me in ways I never imagined.

Even beyond borders, my words find homes

They resonate with hearts I’d never met

Turning my solitude into connection.

From these readers, I find purpose

Their reflections make me explore deeper truth

To write with even more honesty

It has been their encouragement that 

transformed my poetry and so did me.
