Horror Writer, Multimedia Artist & Storyteller

As a multimedia artist, I use stories, art, music, and poetry to explore emotions that are often easier to create than to explain.

My body feels weak,
Perhaps I’m no longer young,
Closing in on three decades now,
Yet supposedly, life has only begun.

Every day, I feel a small ache,
Nothing too heavy, yet it gets in my way,
Like a relentless companion,
A new ailment greets every day.

I’m reminded of things like age,
And how we are eventually forgotten
As no memory leaves a permanent trace,
These thoughts weigh heavy,
For those whose dreams seem to fade.

As if I can feel time running out,
And I must make haste,
Trying to revert the feeling
Of being a waste of space.

I long for a story yet untold,
Where my worries and aches are cast away,
Lost in the shadow of brighter days.
