Poetry & Prose
The stories too quiet for the stage and too restless for silence.

Some Places
Still Learning
The Gods Do Not Answer
I Forgot the Sound
Some Sorrows You Carry
I Am Made of Everyone
Trying to Remember
Even the Longest Night
The Future
Today I Watered the Plants
Time Doesn't Heal
He Learned My Name
Stay, He Said
Somewhere Around Thirty
You Will Not Always Be
The Dead Don't Leave
The Garden Does Not Mourn
Your Coat on the Hook
They Built the Temple
You Ask How I Am
Light a Candle
I Don't Remember
There Is a Grief
Ten Years Ago
Mourning Is a Language
I Sit With the Grieving
The Hardest Part
Some Doors You Close
I Was Not Rescued
Love Me Like the Wolf
— B.W. Alan
B.W. Alan writes haunting literary fiction, poetry, and reflections for those who have loved deeply, grieved quietly, and are still searching for proof they were here. Words that bear witness.
