Awake
From an early age Alan Ormiston has enjoyed writing poetry. This is his first published book. It is a series of poems reflecting a loved one’s struggle with their mental health. This struggle is not unique.
The poems were written over time, waiting in cafes as a form of journal. A theme emerged around perspectives and conversations. ‘Awake’ reflects love, pain and ultimately hope. For those whose lives are in darkness, beset by pain, there is always a road to the light. There are those who will listen, and a future in which the pain will lessen, where happiness awaits.

~I'd like to thank the awesome author for sending me a free copy in exchange for my honest review!~
Honestly, there's not that much to write about for this one since it's only, like a 20 page poetry book. Regardless, I enjoyed this one a lot.
This book is poetry about mental health, and a lot of the poems were like putting words to my feelings. All of the poems were honest and beautifully written. This would be a great book to read when you need a reminder that you aren't the only one with the struggles you face :)
All in all, this was a wonderful book that I will certainly reread in the future!
Definitely recommended!
