    About this ebook

    They say pain changes people, but so does love. For me, that purpose was fulfilled first in falling in love, and then in learning what it means. True love is a virtue of honour. We love people and they don’t love us back so that we can learn to love without expectations. In the end, love is something you freely give, and not necessarily something you receive.

    I hope you enjoy reading these poems as much as I enjoyed writing them.

    King Samuel Benson

    I'm King. I'm African by birth and English by accent. I was born inside a yellow transit bus on April 15, 1993. I'm dark chocolate in complexion with a strong athletic build. In 2013, I packed my life's belongings in two large duffel bags and traveled to a French country, hoping to begin life as a university freshman. After four years of undergraduate study, I left the university without a degree. Life is simple to me, but not in the way I like it to be. I don't believe in luck. Luck is a man-made device. I believe the real word is miracle. I believe in miracles. Miracles abound everyday if we open our eyes to them. I believe in love. Without love, there'd be no happiness, and without love, there'd be no freedom. I dream of a country where love is the only law. I believe in happy-ever-after. There's a place of perfect joy. I believe in a brighter future. I daily envision a great future unveiling before me. My immediate timeline may not be realistic, but I'm confident that I'll get there someday.
