'Heart Songs'
A Personal Collection of Prose
Writer
Taraka 'TK' Tennakoon
Feeling and thought, softly strung.
Poetry has always been a way for me to express and distill emotions, no matter how raw, fraught or intense they may be.
I quite like to think that by crafting these emotions into words, I get a chance to examine them, to chisel them down to their essence and in doing so, find meaning and peace.
Below is a collection of poems I've written over the years. I may never truly divulge the real life stories and circumstances that led me to write them in the first place, but I assure you they remain as fresh and resonant today in my memory as they where when I first put them to pen and paper.
​
And therein, I suppose, lies the power of the written word.
