Biography

I'm just your average middle aged guy, making my way and living life in a time where physical interaction no longer dictates or limits the way in which we connect intellectually or spiritually to one another across our ever shrinking world. With the realisation that even the smallest darkest hideaway can become Colleseum of knowledge, culture and entertainment now that we have th ability to souround ourselves with other beautiful minds all traveling at the speed light. Our connection to the rest of the human race and in turn ourselves.. is truly limitless. I stand here today.. just one of 7,486,536,615 voices that will help create and give birth to a thunderous chorus of human thought and imagination. And even against the back drop of seven and a half billion souls singing out at once I know that someone, somewhere will hear me.

Samples

The Beautiful Darkness Darkness sweeps the valley Storm-clouds.. Black out the sun. Thunder in the distance But the rain is yet to come. I can feel it. It's coming to take us. To the echoed silence. Of the beautiful darkness. The poetic soul Craves.. Some distant validation. A timeless lyric born Of forgotten aspiration. Like quiet adulation Of.. A voice silenced in its prime. An act of desperation The need for reason and rhyme. I can feel it. It's coming to break us. In the echoed silence. Of the beautiful darkness. Somewhere amongst the darkness, waits a face from long ago. Somewhere under the darkness, lies a place that we all go. Some-where out in that beautiful darkness, theres a peace we'd love to know. Silent prayers whispered Go unanswered.. From time to time. Precious gift tainted Charmed life left behind. What words are left to find Once.. Goodbye has been denied. Now you've earned your wings May they forever let you fly. Oh... I say feel it. When it comes to save us. The echoing silence. Of such a Beautiful... Darkness owns the valley Storm-clouds. Black out the sun. The thunder, it surrounds us. But you'll remain forever young. © CND.

I just wanted answers But I cant wait all night. U won't talk you won't even make the time. So I vent raw emotion down the telephone line. This love is beyond salvation. But we hold on looking through eyes of desperation. I miss u less a little each day. Memories fade as I push them away. All I wanted for u and for us. Time after time it proved never enough. Tainted thoughts and wasted pain. Two years on it was all in vain. This love is beyond salvation. But we hold on looking through eyes of desperation. I hate u less a little each day. My feelings numb as u give them away. The love we made is beyond salvation. Replaced by hurt, longing and frustration. The life we built lays in devastation Still we cry through eyes filled with Des-per-a-tion. Our love.. dead, buried & beyond salvation.. but my heart will sing on filled with new inspiration.. © CND August 13, 2012
