Bend My Light

In three movements — Descent, Search, and Arrival — Alexander Gwyn takes the reader on an unflinching journey through the full spectrum of human experience.

These twenty-three poems do not look away. From the raw honesty of addiction and rebirth, to the cosmic wonder of the universe, to the quiet grace of silence and solitude — Bend My Light is a collection that speaks to anyone who has ever searched for meaning in the darkness and found light on the other side.

Illustrated throughout with twenty-five original expressionist artworks inspired by the brushwork of Van Gogh, this debut collection is as visually stunning as it is emotionally resonant.

For readers of poetry that is honest, searching, and alive.
