Scott Mcconnel

"I'm a 23 year old from Belfast, Northern Ireland. I began using writing and poetry as a cathartic and healing outlet a few years ago after developing a physical illness at 19 that halted my athletic dreams as a martial artist. My poetry consists mostly of the frustrations of unfulfilled potential and lost love."

Clarity

It’s a mundane life ingrained,
Sustained,
Until we reach the grave,
We can open the door,

Or,

Continue to ignore,
And be a slave,
To the dull brain wave,
So be brave,
And look at the sky,
Why my dear,
Enjoy the view,
Because through the Void,
Stars are glowing,

Knowing,

We can start anew
