At the meeting point of ink and ocean, I found the rhythm of my soul. Safe Space was born on the sacred shores of Inkwell Beach, where the tides mirror thought, and beauty lives in the spaces between words. This collection of 21 poems, written between the ages of 11 and 31, traces two decades of reflection, growth, and becoming. Each poem is a wave, each line a tide—offering quiet lessons in surrender, presence, and truth. May these words carry you inward, as the tides once carried me, and may you find your own safe space along the shore.
