As I'm sure you all know, Ed Sheeran is an amazing artist with a voice as smooth as honey and songs that could make anyone cry. The title was actually inspired by an interview I had seen where Ed was asked how he overcame his nervousness. He replied saying that all the little gigs he had done before his big break were like small paper cuts. They hurt, or in the music world made him nervous, but prepared him for bigger performances which he compared to big gashes and explained how they made him the performer he is today. It's very metaphorical. He is very talented and worked hard to get where he is now. I am writing this story about him and what I imagine was his life before his big break. Filled with love, pain and success, this story is meant to inspire all of you to follow your dreams just as Ed has.
