Audition found in my book, Before the world moves on

By Nathaniel TerrellPublished 8 months ago 1 min read

Before the world moves on is a collection of poems, stories, anthems and songs. The title comes from my current mindset and experiences in this ever changing world.

It’s written from the perspective of a man in midlife, fighting demons, in deep reflection, processing measures of maturation and inspired by the signs of troubling times, calls for change, a vivid imagination, a need to express creatively while telling a story, and spreading positive vibes.

Each piece is composed from a spectrum of experiences, thoughts and emotions.

The messages are powerful, relevant and relatable especially to anyone in the process of healing, at a crossroads and or are questioning life, purpose and working to better themselves in the midst of great odds.

This book speaks on love, being in love or the lack thereof, faith in God, regrets, reminisces, growth, agony, anthems of change, power and praise, darkness, acceptance, the need for unity

the afterlife. Past, present and future are big themes throughout the manuscript. Embracing and accepting the unknown and what is to come good or bad are also spread throughout this book. In fact many of the poems were written as monologues or performative pieces.

This manuscript is relevant and relatable from the perspective that the world is changing in many ways and the emphasis or message is to not give up or fight the inevitable. But rather to adapt and evolve and not perish or be left behind. If you enjoy inspirational poetry, love stories, moments of hopelessness, stories of what if’s, lyrical monologues, questions of life and clever storytelling, you will love this book.
