She throws a glass at the wall
She’s angry from that last call
Away he’s gone, her life ripped
He done to her a moonlight flit
Bills he’s left her and trouble too
He had enough, too much too soon
He said pressure he couldn’t take
Calling her things, even a fake
Her problems were not his he said
Too many she had, did in his head
His life became wrangled and lost
No direction at her cost
He said the problems are hers alone
She had cast that first stone
That she wasn’t willing to help herself
Into his savings did she also delve
So now she’s on her own, nothing left
Now she’s feeling so bereft
Why does this always happen to her
Why so much in her life young, a blur
Is she really at fault in this?
Does she ignore everyone as he said, selfish?
Money and depression he said are the worst
Maybe her life is totally cursed?
She sits in her chair and rolls up in tears
Another boyfriend gone, no-one hears
But she doubts now in herself, her past
The same repetition is always cast

I'm a thinker, listener, a "question's pretty much everything" type of person. A seeker of knowledge, always restless, yet seeks the calm in life.
I love writing in all forms and am in the process of completing a number of ongoing projects. I love the craft of writing and the possibilities it holds. A magic carpet through the mind. I love pretty much all creative arts, music, film and theatre the leading ones.
Born in Hertfordshire in England, my family Irish, Welsh and English, I currently reside in Edinburgh, in Scotland. I'm drawn to coastal and mountain regions where I like to go to think and draw inspiration from. Ireland is a place that's dear to me, and I try to get back to see family and friends as much as possible.
My interests are wide and broad, too many to mention here, but history, archaeology, criminology, music and film are just some of those things I love.
I hope you enjoy my ramblings on here as that's what they are really. I'll let my fingers do the ''talking...''
