Tread Softly On Their Heart: Poetry and Prose

In a world that has shown us so much cruelty, for a generation that has grown up learning to be strong and to exercise their strength in tough situations, I still believe being soft is the bravest way of being strong. To walk softly on the garden of other's hearts, to refusing to give in to the bitterness the world throws at you, to speak kindly to strangers and friends alike, and above all, to drop one's shields being unafraid, and to remind the world of the beauty and bravery of vulnerability; isn't that the strongest way to be? Tread softly, my friend. As much as you can. The world is harsh enough. You don't have to add on to it.

"Sanhita, the poet, is so like a young master going about dusting cobwebs in minds of those who have stopped believing in themselves. This short volume has three sections and each leads to the next to make the enigma of emotions crystal clear. For instance, how many of us can say that we know love inside-out? But go through Lens of Perception, Rose-Coloured Glasses and Strength in Vulnerability, and you too will believe that Sanhita does."
