Biography

Mid 30’s male. English. No education beyond GCSE. No idea what I’m talking about, but I have a desire to express myself with words.

Samples

Why is there something rather than nothing? Can God exist in a world full of suffering? Can it be, stuff just exists? Is there meaning when chaos persists? This unknown knowledge is my deepest desire Am I weak for seeking a messiah? Fear of the abyss, picturing the end Infinite oblivion, death with no end Completely terrifying in the minds eye So one may ask, why do I pry? Live for the moment not for the morrow Why fill you head with unrealised sorrow? Impossible I say to ignore it completely But I mustn’t be consumed and let it defeat me Look inside for a reason to keep living Be moral, be kind, keep working and giving It doesn’t matter what happens at the end There’s a universe of love in family and friends Still, my mind wanders to dying alone That fateful day, will I see a throne?
