Unspoken

He has often considered quitting, even when he was busy writing this book of poetry, Lluyle Arendse says. The obstacles in his life threatened to overwhelm him, but also served as his inspiration. The main theme of these poems is retrospection – finding a purpose on the road to self-discovery and escaping circumstances. It is a journey built on change and experience. Being influenced by friends, becoming a young parent in an area where drugs are rife, he addresses these issues in his own unique style and aims to inspire young people to be more open about mental health. Unspoken tells the story of issues young people face.
