There is an old expression which states, "write what you know". That is exactly what this young, new author has done. In his first book, Poems of a Wounded Heart, Alex used his own pain and heart ache he experienced on his road to find true love as his muse. Alex is now in a loving, committed relationship and now his heart sings with joy and happiness. His newest book, Poetry of Love & Hope was born from his new found love and outlook on life. Alex believes we were put on this earth through the love of God and that giving and receiving love is what all humanity has in common. Love is the one thing no one should live without.
