Synopsis

""Ever since I started writing poetry, I've always found myself addressing it to someone or something. Knowing they'd never read it or that they didn't even exist was relieving, in a way, and most if not all of the poems in this book are based on no experience of my own. Regardless, I have always been talking to somebody. Poetry to me has always been about getting your feelings across in a way that doesn't need to be entirely relatable or understood so long as it's heard. A simpler, more personalised way of tackling love and death, which are things people manage to always be talking about and talking around at the same time. I have spent a long time attempting to articulate my feelings in a way that is easy to understand for a neurotypical world. None of these poems will be understood by you reading them exactly the way they were by me writing them. Although uncomfortable for some, that reality is the essence of poetry to me. I've never felt better understood than when writing things knowing that would never be the outcome. You're not expected to understand my thoughts. I do, though, hope you enjoy at least one.""
