My newest novel.

just a short story i might turn into a novel

I don't know why I'm writing this other than the idea for a collection of poems came to mind and I had an insane amount of confidence in that moment. One thing led to another and here we are. 🙃

A boy named Alex uses poetry to make sense of the world around him but it's slowly ruining his personal and social life. His parents are killed in a tragic accident and he is the only survivor of his family. He noticed a shadowy person before the accident and now the man won't stop following him even though when he tries to make direct eye contact the man disappears. At the orphanage his poetry consumes him even though he doesn't remember writing the increasingly cryptic verse. He has to free himself from the poetry that is enslaving his body and figure out how the shadowy man fits into all of it.
