POET-TREE FOR THE SOUL

Poetry is language at its most distilled. People often say poetry is the language of love and truly, there is nothing so moving as beautiful love poems. In this segment, we have assembled a few poems written by your peers who participated in Unity Young Writers Festival (UWF) last year.

UWF is a platform to celebrate local poetry and nurture budding student poets. Our budding poets attended a workshop conducted by local poets to before writing their own poems to the theme, 'Healing'. The budding poets interpreted healing in their own ways, filtered through their lenses and lived experiences. Follow them as they weave their personal tales into their poetry, and navigate their emotional labyrinth. These words are wounds, given a new flesh of life through the poetic form; these words are the fragments of their experiences as they interpret what it means to heal.

May their work inspire your own healing.
