As you get older
you realise things change
Your friends get married
move away far from range
Contact sometimes severed,
sad as it is, that’s life
People just move on,
runaway or hide
Whilst you stand still
feeling left behind
As time passes in
supersonic speed it flies
You’re left with a feeling
like of death
As everyone close to you
leaves you their last breath
You suddenly realise you’ve
forgotten how to live
As all those that have gone
reinvented themselves, now others they give
Shoulders hunched you walk away
hoping for better things yourself
Things change for those that dare
this the line they sell
You hope that angel’s wings
carry you far from here
For if they don’t
you’ll be stuck forever you fear

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...''
