I was born on October 31, 1795. I had four siblings me being the oldest. I lost both my parents at a young age. My father died when i was 8. My mom died six years later of Tuberculosis. After my mother past away, I got two gaurdians. Names are Richard Abbey and John Rowland Sandell. At the age of 15, I withdrew from from my school and I started to study madicine in London Hospital. I soon became an licensed Apothecary. But i never practiced, i was always writing poetry instead. I met a girl named Leigh Hunt who published my first sonnets "On First Looking into Chapman's Homer" and "O Solitude". One of my poems called "Endymion" was a big hit. Two of the most popular magizines attacked it like no other. The magizines wereQuarterly Review and the Blackwood's Magazine. In 1818, I spent the summer on a walking tour in Northern England and Scotland.One of my siblings, Tom, was suffering from Tubercolsis, so I quickly returned home. While i was caring for my brother Tom, i fell in love with this beautiful women named Fanny Brawne. The years 1818-1819, people say, that these years were the best writings I have wrote yet. I started to write a poem called "Hyperion" but then i stopped because of my brothers death in 1819. The within that year, I started to write it again, but i renamed it to "The Fall of Hyperion". In Autumn of 1819, I was diagnosed with Tubercolosis. I new right then i was soon to be upon death.
