Alexander Bentley

Alexander Bentley is an American poet, author, storyteller, and husband. He started posting his poems online in 2014, first on Tumblr and then shifted to Instagram when he discovered typed quotes from R.M. Drake. Alexander now ranks as one of the top poets on Facebook, alongside Rupi Kaur, Lang Leav, Pierre Alex Jeanty, and the poet who inspired him to post on social media. Since that time, Alexander has published 4 books, including The Raven Redux & Other Poems, Eversleep: The Beauty of Dark Silence, and A Poet's Manifesto. Alexander’s body of work touches most commonly on themes of death and loss, depression and heartbreak, life and hope, but most importantly: love. Alexander has been very vocal about his relationship with his wife on social media. Which has helped him find new audiences for his poetry while encouraging people from different cultures and all walks of life to embrace the love inside their hearts.
