Erem Sahintepe is an introspectively raw and vulnerable poet who began writing during the Covid-19 lockdown as a way to release suppressed thoughts and emotions. Poetry, to him, is a form of therapy - an escape from personal demons and a powerful outlet for self-expression. With a daily presence on Instagram and Threads (@quillofaphoenix), Erem shares poems that explore the depths of the human experience, focusing on mental health, personal growth, and the beauty of vulnerability. Lucid Dreams and Wanted Nightmares is his first poetry collection, a reflection of his journey to express raw emotion in a beautiful and meaningful way.
