Dearest readers, I hope you read my poem and felt something. I love taking emotions and breathing life into them. Too often, we see emotions separate from the human spirit when in fact the human brain and body work together, synthesising the world we live in. Take a breath – you’re safe now. ~ Rhea Saxenas
