Moments of gladness, moments of sadness & everything in-between.
I'm an 18 year old boy with Cerebral Palsy, depression and anxiety. I'm a British Hipster Punk Fuck who has dreams of happiness and independence. Living with my difficulties can be saddening and difficult so to cope I draw (follow my Instagram: alex_likes_airguns) and write poems apparently! The interest in writing is fairly new and I have no idea how to really write enjoyable things. I'm an illustrator by trade so this whole writing stuff is new to me, apologies for bad grammar.

Metamorphasize
This is a collection of poems written as a way to control a person's feelings; originally they were never intended to be seen by human eyes. This is written from the point of view of someone who struggles with emotional turmoil but feels they cannot tell others about it because their afraid it might drag them into the same torture they feel everyday. Depression is a serious thing that plagues our world and this is one of many ways it can affect a person. Too many people act like this doesn't exist or its a style but its not its a serious issue people have become desensitized to. When this book was first published it climbed its way to #1 in depression, to my dismay I took it down hoping to find a publisher that would be willing to work with me (of course no progress has been made) ALL poems in this book have a trigger warning but if there is *** in the title than its a suggestion and an extra precaution to not read it if you are at risk of becoming triggered. TRIGGER WARNING!!!! FOR ANYONE WHO DEALS WITH DEPRESION OR HAS DEALT WITH IT!!! READ AT YOUR OWN RISK!!! There is cursing in some parts of this!!!! IF AT ANY POINT YOU FEEL TRIGGERED OR NEED HELP CONTACT THE CRISIS HOTLINE AT 741741Complete
Lost Nor Found
(Thank you @Oceane_Breeze for the outstanding cover!) Laelynn is losing hope. Her entire world is crashing down - everything getting worse by the day. The bullying. Her mom's mental condition. The pain and heartbreak. But when her fate intertwines itself with two others, Kayden and Elena, Laelynn finds she might not be completely lost after all. "Memories and faces blurred together, into some kind of horrifying collage. Insults and taunts coalesced, forming a frenzied, tumultuous cheer. She screamed, covering her ears to possibly block out the uproar, but it only got louder. It was as if the voices had arms, reaching out and trying to pull her into accepting. Accepting that she was worthless. They became more frantic, not only reaching out but scratching, nails longing for flesh. She yelled and cried, but she couldn't escape. Never."Complete

Dear, Lane (BK 2 OF DEAR READER SERIES)
She was the girl no one really knew- until her story was found in ink-stained pages and broken confessions. Until her best friend turned the final page... and picked up the pen. Maxine was never supposed to be the one writing. But when Lane took her own life, she left behind a journal full of pain, secrets, and silence too loud to ignore. And the last words? They came from Max. A truth no one else could tell. Now, Max writes to the girl she couldn't save. She writes to grieve, to remember, to ask the questions she'll never get answers to. She writes because it's the only way she knows how to stay close to Lane- even as the world keeps spinning without her. This is not a love story. This is a story of guilt. Of healing. Of learning to live when someone you love could not. A journal continued. A friendship that refuses to die. A girl trying to rewrite the ending she never saw coming. Go on. She's waiting for you.Complete
