And so it begins again these games to play
Always they do ruin his day
Why oh why do they do this to him
He’s tempted their friendship to rescind
One always full of excuses he does make
To his friends and others for heaven’s sake
Why oh why the stories and the lies
His friends just get fed up and downward sigh
Another, she’s the same this girl
Always something to buy and sell
Always needs you to pour out her heart
But where is she when you fall apart?
One friend who falls for their behaviour
They look to sometimes as a sort of saviour
And he’s there in a heartbeat, full of faith
He would never anyone ever betray
But he’s been sorely tested the recent past
His anger seething deep inside fit to blast
But calm he is, never rising to the bait
He’ll leave that to karma and twisted fate

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...''
