The first time that I saw you
my eyes opened wide
I think you noticed me look,
needed to run and hide
Every time since, I carefully
glance your way,
Praying silently,
that you’d make my day
But it’s never gonna happen
because I’m not your type,
Go on give me a try,
don’t believe in the hype
I see the way you sweep your fingers
through your long dark hair,
Wish that was me,
I wouldn’t dare
You’re going away soon
to a different town
I wanna go with you,
don’t wanna drown
If I asked you on a date then
I would fail,
You would give me a look of
shock then bail
Been in this dilemma for
A very long while,
I’ve always wanted more than
just a beautiful smile
So look a bit deeper into
your heart
Don’t throw me with the others
on the wagon cart
I’ll never let you down,
too loyal it’s true
If you give me a chance,
I’ll prove it to you
But then I awake from
this dream
And think of what
could’ve been…

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...''
