What left is there to gain?
All is lost on this day of rain,
Drying tears and coping with
a heavy adolescent pain.

Out of personal hatred,
with my life off-track,
I picked up a bottle
and tipped it back.
...
Searching with no cause
Through the dark of night
Over nameless hills
Threatened by the plight.

Born in Stevens Point, WI into a loving family, which has grown to 5. Mom and Dad, sister Jordan, and brother James. I've experienced life from opposite ends of the spectrum. I have a great appreciation for my life and how blessed that I am. My largest struggles at this point in my life are internal. The depth of thought that my mind drags me into leads me to trying to solve all of the world's mysteries all at once.

Losing It All
What left is there to gain?
All is lost on this day of rain,
Drying tears and coping with
a heavy adolescent pain.
I stand distraught in question, hoping for a sign.
I stand below in darkness where he used to light the sky

I stand below in darkness, but could not tell you why.
Eyelids clenched forevermore,
So not to burn my eyes by day.
Lonely on this floor indoors,
Saddened I will stay.
Are you familiar with the feeling?
Surrounded, yet alone.
For prayer I've dropped to kneel,
Now faith is all I own.
