When You Get Older

Poetry

“If it takes a village to raise a child, it takes a village to abuse one.” In Gabriel’s debut poetry book, he writes a heart wrenching love letter, investigating the catastrophic emotional effects parental alienation has on family structures from a personal, intimate story of an uncle struggling to cope with his family’s tragedy, and struggling to accept an estranged relationship with his niece. In a modern-day poetic masterpiece that poses heavy questions on faith, morality, and family values. When You Get Older is a necessary story for young adults that are healing from childhood trauma.

“Perhaps we were stars
From a distance we were beautiful
And the world forgot we were burning” Available in hardcover, paperback, and digital formats.
