​"​A Londoner living in France, Nav draws on her heritage that spans three continents, Africa, Asia and Europe. With her lush background and a wealth of culture she writes and performs poetry that has depth and intensity.  Her words — sentient  defiant and brave — end up on paper spuriously and passionately. Her poetry jumps off the page and off the stage with fervour and intensity at her live spoken word events.  Nav is daring, soul searching and empowering."

​               I am present and aware of my absence


​

I am fearless and bathe in my vulnerability

I am from the East and nurtured in the West

​I am a light and consumed by my darkness

  I am female and fused with my masculine

       I am fragile and an unrelenting force 

​    I am a poet and words frighten
​

 I am whole and entirely unwholesome

                                     I am labelled yet remain undefined   

​I am Nav and I am​.

I returned home
A million miles from where I live
Not to a place but to a space residing within
I returned home
To love
A love that expands beyond frontiers
​A love that magnifies beyond reason
​A love that laughs in the face of time.
