She awakes to a dark day
Half asleep, dreaming still
As she moves, they do fade
Now she’s in the world so real
Tired of everything
Tired of the struggle
Tired of all the fighting
Fighting through the rubble
Help she never asks for
Because it always comes at a cost
This an unwritten law
No wonder she’s so lost
So she fights alone
As she’s always done
Through criticisms and groans
Wanting just to run
She wishes for a guardian angel
One to guide her true
So she won’t end up the fool
No more days so blue
So where next will she be?
What choices should she make?
What is it she truly needs?
When will come her big break?

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...''
