Poems
I have taken inspiration from my childhood, true-life events, memories, and everyday observations in the hope that it shows some of me on a page. I use writing as a way of expressing myself and reaching people’s hearts and minds through poems and soulful stories. I hope this resonates with you too.
I am a writer who is disabled and I have been writing ever since I was young. During my time at New York University Abu Dhabi, I wrote lyrics that artists performed and recorded. I’ve written poetry that was and still is being performed at the notorious spoken word event, Rooftop Rhythms at NYUAD. I recently won an award from this also for the ‘Most Improved Poet’. Writing short stories and poetry is not only a passion for me but a way of expressing myself in a creative way which sometimes may be challenging due to my disability.

Turkish rose
Oh, Turkish rose!
Do you want to be
in nature with me
Would you be like a tree
While we hold our hearts
Feel my love under the earth
Want to hear
your sweet voice in my soul
On the grass
We watch the stars
For eternity
