A Life Lived by One
Buy from
A Life Lived by One by Bain is a poetry collection about growing up feeling alone, going through pain and confusion, and later facing deep depression that almost took everything from him. He shares what it feels like to struggle inside your own mind, even when you have people who love you.
But at its heart, this book is also about love. It’s about the woman who never walked away. It’s about his children, who reminded him that life was still worth it. It’s about the little moments that slowly, stubbornly, brought him back.
These poems are filled with pure feelings. If you’ve ever felt broken, if you’ve ever needed a sign that things can change, this book gets it. And maybe, just maybe, it offers a bit of hope.

Bain
A man who always thought he could write poetry, but only now has the opportunity to show the world what he can do. At the age of forty, he was placed on the work ‘scrap heap’ after having a double lower spinal fusion, which deemed him ‘unemployable’. He is a man who suffered greatly from depression and with the utterance of five simple words from his wife, began to turn his life around and start on the road to recovery. His hope is that someone who suffers from depression will read this and find the help they so desperately need.
