Sandcastles is a collection of vivid, evocative poems exploring identity, loss, transformation, and the search for belonging. The sea, sky, forests, clouds, and dreams become active companions on an inner journey from wanting to disappear to finding the strength to celebrate being alive.
The poems are not afraid to descend into darkness, embracing all that has forged us along the way while reflecting a deep craving to belong, to be seen, loved and accepted for who we are. The title is symbolic rather than literal. A sandcastle is not only about impermanence, but about choosing to build something beautiful even though the tide always comes.
Sandcastles is for those who experience the world intensely. For those who have questioned where they belong, who have lived with grief, loneliness or anxiety, yet still find themselves searching for beauty, meaning and connection. It is for readers drawn to surreal, symbolic and introspective poetry that doesn't offer easy answers, but companionship along the journey.
We are nothing but sandcastles waiting to be taken by the lapping tongues of the waves.
