Overview

Changing Tides is a raw and reflective poetry collection about growth, survival, and the quiet transformation that happens when life doesn't break you, but reshapes you. Set against the pulse of Nairobi, this book follows a man returning to the city as a changed version of himself. Older. Calmer. Still uncertain, but finally learning how to breathe in a place that once felt overwhelming. Through jobs that demanded resilience, streets that taught hard lessons, and moments of solitude that forced self-confrontation, the poems trace the shift from anxiety to confidence, from survival to intention. These poems capture the messy middle of becoming: learning how to talk to strangers, how to build a home piece by piece, how to earn, fail, rise, and keep moving when clarity is scarce. They speak to heartbreaks, small victories, sleepless nights, faith tested, hunger felt, and hope slowly rebuilt. Each piece is a snapshot of a moment lived fully, sometimes painfully, sometimes triumphantly, always honestly. Changing Tides is not about sudden breakthroughs or perfect endings. It is about gradual change, the kind you only notice when you look back and realize you are no longer who you used to be. It is a witness to leaving an old self behind, confronting discomfort, and stepping forward anyway. This collection is for anyone navigating transition, learning to stand on their own, or finding meaning in the struggle. These poems do not promise answers. They offer recognition, rhythm, and the reminder that growth often happens quietly, beneath the surface, long before the tide turns. Welcome to Changing Tides. Walk through the shifts. See the man who was, and the man becoming.
