There comes a time
To put away childish things they say
To grow up
And live as an adult everyday
But this saddens me
In so many ways it breaks my heart
Why must this be so?
That we tear ourselves apart?
There comes a time
When we should say no more
To our slave-drivers
Who we seem to conform for
For it’s our lives
That we do live and breathe
Let us be
To live our lives as we fittingly see
There comes a time
We should lose negative thoughts
And people too
In which our lives are caught
Life too short
To carry burdens of others
You forget yourself
In negativity you do smother
There comes a time
Where you should live as you should
Doing all things
That you ever dreamed you could
Whatever it is
Fight for these dreams everyday
Don’t lose yourself
In other games people play

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...''
