Here are some of my short stories.
"The Abyss of Existence"
In the darkest corners of his mind, Edgar pondered the existential abyss that consumed his thoughts. A poet by trade, he grappled with the futility of existence, peeling back the layers of his consciousness like a surgeon seeking the heart of his despair. His verses dripped with cynicism and nihilistic undertones, inviting his readers into the depths of their own existential crises. With each word, he danced on the precipice of madness, taunting the fabric of reality with his poetic prowess. But as Edgar's notoriety grew, his art became a weapon, slicing through the delicate tapestry of society's illusions. In his pretentious rage, he sought to tear down the façade of happiness and expose the raw nerve of human suffering. Yet, in his darkest moments, Edgar couldn't help but wonder if his words were mere echoes bouncing off the walls of his tortured mind. Did his pretentious edginess serve a higher purpose, or was it simply a self-indulgent display of intellectual superiority? The answer eluded him, forever lost in the abyss of existence.
