Aleza Freeman

Aleza Freeman is a longtime journalist, copywriter, and poet, born and raised in fabulous Las Vegas, Nev. She fell in love with writing at the age of 7, when she scribbled a rhyming poem about the many practical uses for a unicorn’s horn.

In her free time, Aleza enjoys hanging out with family, walking her dog at the park, daydreaming, gardening, rewatching ‘80s and ‘90s sitcoms, doodling, contemplating the meaning of life, and shopping online (to ensure a constant flow of boxes for her cats).

Falling Behind

Poetry

In her debut poetry collection, writer Aleza Freeman explores universal themes like love, loss, longing, hope, and wonder. The poems for ages 14 to 100+ are lighthearted, relatable, thought-provoking, and quick-to-read.

Note from the author
Falling Behind is a poetry book about motion and emotion, about getting along, feeling stuck, running away, and seeking meaning. It's my first poetry collection, so the poems aren't exactly new. The oldest one is well over drinking age and the most recent is practically a tween.

I've held these poems hostage for the last decade, reading, re-reading, editing, and re-editing. I couldn't write anything new. I decided it was time to release my poems to the whims of their own poetry book and, guess what, I'm writing again. I guess, to grow, you must let go.

It turns out, Falling Behind is also about moving forward.
