The Core of My Poetry
My Lost Pages is an eclectic collection of twenty-five poems written in a conversational freestyle allowing the reader to reflect and laugh through versatile topics. What inspired you to write this particular collection of poems?
Circumstances and situations in real life have always inspired me to reflect deeply and look at life differently. I want my poems to help people appreciate the mundane, reflect on daily life, and make a difference. Simple language and topics that connect with people and what people experience form the core of my poetry.
Were there any poems that were particularly difficult to write? If so, why?
Poems such as “The Blue Woman,” “The Woodcutter’s Son,” and “The Wild Fire and Have Mercy on Me” were painful to write. They evoked emotions, brought tears, and transferred me to a different world while writing. They are poems that touch on a range of societal issues.
Did you write these poems with a specific audience in mind, or was it a more personal endeavor?
When I write I do not think about who will read these. I let creativity do its work. I want the process to be natural and spontaneous and run its course.
What is the next book that you are working on, and when can your fans expect it to be out?
I am working on two books simultaneously. One is a self-help book and the other is a children’s fantasy. I am hoping to release one of these in 2026. So stay tuned.

My Lost Pages
Poetry collections are always an enigma, their depths as varied as the voices that create them. Sneha Sabu’s My Lost Pages offers an immersive journey into the poet’s psyche, where each poem unfolds like a spontaneous dialogue with her subconscious. This collection brims with fleeting moods and restless introspection, carrying the reader through meditations on identity, existence, and the enigmatic essence of being alive.
Written in free verse, Sabu’s poetry defies structure while embracing rhythm, drawing comparisons to literary greats like William Blake, Ezra Pound, and Emily Dickinson. Some pieces stand solitary, sharp and self-contained, while others spill into one another, creating a seamless stream of thought. Reading these poems feels akin to stepping into a lucid dream, where the boundaries between musings and realities blur. Sabu muses on the delicate threads connecting life’s vastness to her inner world, weaving disparate ideas into an intricate tapestry of thought.
The collection invites two modes of engagement. One can focus on the impact of individual poems, letting their emotional resonance linger and evolve. Alternatively, one might search for a greater narrative—subtle connections bridging the poems into a singular exploration of meaning. Both approaches reward the reader with insights that feel both deeply personal and universally reflective. A unique touch comes from Sabu’s candid notes accompanying each piece. These glimpses into her creative process transform the collection into an intimate conversation, fostering a sense of closeness between poet and reader. The transparency adds another layer of depth, allowing the audience to peer into the moments of inspiration behind the verses. Together, these poems form a soothing cascade, washing over the reader with their contemplative tones and evocative imagery.
The collection creates an atmosphere of serenity rarely achieved in prose, inviting reflection and stillness. Sabu’s voice emerges as both plaintive and probing—confident in some moments, tentatively exploring in others. She traverses the complexities of existence with grace and curiosity, seeking to unravel life’s intricate mysteries.
My Lost Pages is a lyrical meditation, one that lingers in the mind and invites repeated readings. It is as much an exploration of the poet’s inner world as it is a mirror for the reader’s own thoughts and feelings. Sabu proves herself a voice worth listening to—raw, reflective, and profoundly human.
