trauma – Navin's Poetry

It’s a single take recording of a piece that I wrote in October 2019…this is the longest poem, that I’ve ever written…it’s more of a storytelling – a story of joy, happiness, courage, family pressure, sadness, pain, sacrifice, suffering & trauma and it has come from the seabed of my heart…

Please bear with me as this spoken word is almost 9 min 30 sec long…I know, it’s crazy long; it’s also my very first time…do know that I’m not seeking anything…it’s simply a pure sharing in this open space…

Back in October 2022, Gabriela Marie Milton asked me if I would be interested in submitting a poem for her very first project under her own publishing house, Literary Revelations…I said Yes coz of 2 reasons, even though I had stopped participating in anthologies…I’ve known Gabriela (through WordPress) almost from the very beginning of my poetry journey…she’s a kind hearted person, a very talented writer, a dedicated professional & I have deep respect for her…Secondly, the theme of the anthology – Hidden in Childhood…I felt this poem has found its place…Gabriela was exceptionally kind coz she accepted my poem even though it’s llllonggg…it’s an honour to be published along with several other amazing & talented poets…Hidden in Childhood: A Poetry Anthology is available on Amazon

I hope you’d give your precious time & listen to this spoken word…thank you very much ✨❤️💫
