Yet another sleepless night
With dreams good and bad, it was light
So much she has on her mind
Will tonight be to her kind?
All she wants is some sleep
Refuses pills, they’re for the weak
Doesn’t need drugs of any kind
She just needs some peace of mind
Living in a noisy town doesn’t help
With its gloom and doom, just like hell
If only she could just up and go
Maybe then her life would have flow
At the moment it’s a rocky road
Full of obstacles and unpleasant toads
With poison they spread, used as a weapon
She dreams of a life better, hopes it will happen
Her day hard she finally lays down
IN happy dreams she hopes to drown
But too many thoughts niggle her mind
Nightmares and a sleepless night she’s sure to find

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...''
