He earned his degree from the University of the South Pacific and launched his writing career in 2017 with his debut poetry collection, The Tragedy of Our Lives. Since then, his subsequent works—A Beautiful Poison, The Flower That Went Mad, and The Words I Could Never Say—have all become bestsellers on Amazon worldwide. His latest book, Lithium, is out now.

Yogesh’s writing is deeply inspired by the chaos, heartbreak, and sadness he has faced throughout his life. Losing his father at just 10 years old caused immense trauma, leaving scars he has carried ever since. These hardships were compounded by major episodes of depression during high school, which led to a relentless battle with suicidal tendencies. It was during these darkest moments, where he felt torn between despair and survival, that he discovered poetry. Writing became his refuge and a lifeline, helping him channel his pain into words and ultimately giving him a reason to keep going.

Heartbreak has also played a pivotal role in Yogesh’s journey. After experiencing love that left him broken, he turned to poetry to mend the pieces of his shattered heart. Each line he wrote became a step toward healing, allowing him to process the pain and rebuild his emotional strength. Poetry became not only a means of survival but also a testament to his resilience, showing him that even the deepest wounds could inspire art.

Having endured so much darkness, Yogesh finds joy in the simple things in life. To him, light often feels like something from a fairy tale—rare and fleeting. His only mechanism of healing has been through poetry, where he transforms his struggles into art. His days are spent navigating a whirlwind of emotions, while his nights are devoted to translating those feelings into words.

Today, Yogesh aspires to be a voice for those who suffer in silence, offering them hope and understanding through his poetry. His work resonates deeply with readers who find solace and strength in his words.

When he’s not writing, Yogesh enjoys immersing himself in nature and capturing its beauty through landscape photography, which he pursues as a passionate hobby.
