He has won multiple awards and has consistently secured top positions in numerous national and international poetry competitions. His poems have been published in anthologies, literary journals, newspapers, and magazines around the world.

The Parting
Whiteness was separated from blackness.
The intensity of the cold had reached its peak.
The day was in its early stages.
There were many crows flying over my head.
Some of them were on the ground and some were in the air.
They were writhing in agony.
I felt like they were grieving someone.
I took two steps forward
Home
Since morning
Four times have I been to the terrace
Twice to the porch
About a hundred steps have I walked in the lobby
Once or twice, I have peeped
Out of the gate too
I am tired
A tub filled with lukewarm salt water
And I sit dipping my feet in it
Suddenly,
in the mind, grow
many feet
I watch closely:
They are swollen,
Heels cracked,
Blood oozes from the ankles,
The nails
As a result of stumbling,
