Hi my name is Russell

I write poetry and lyrics, I have in the past through bands put poetry to music.

I use poetry to express myself and use it as a therapy. For me poetry is the alpha and omega of expression and creativity. I was involved in a serious car accident as much as it's a long story and a long journey. I went blind, died, had a life after death experience spent 3 months in intensive care got MRSA had 34 operations. And then had to learn to walk again, poetry and lyric writing saved me from my inner darkness. I write dark poems and lyrics as well as romantic poems and lyrics. You can read some clips of my work on TikTok at @russellpoetry and on Instagram at russell_gooch2023 I'm soon going to start a YouTube channel as well, thank you for the advice of my mentor Adam so far as well!
