    About this ebook

    This book is a collection of poetry that has been made by myself and kept for years, the earliest being 2009. I have waited so long to build a large enough collection and be able to distribute in a format that it deserves. The inspiration for these poems is life in general at times of great emotion or at night I would wake up and write or sometimes one line of a poem would run around in my head until I put it down on paper or until I wrote the rest of the lines to finish it. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

It is from here his passion to write his first book grew.

      Being an adult is… Being constantly aware that death is simultaneously very close and very far away, so each day is a rush to slow down so that you can get enough energy from stillness to speed up and get going. What are you worried about currently?

      You know, I just have to say, I love getting older. And I don’t know if this is necessarily because I now have ‘wisdom’ from living so many years on this earth. I think it is actually more because I am finally getting ‘my ducks all in a row.’ I have
