Seed

She awakes in her warm bed with a sense
that something isn’t right
Her partner next to her, her love was immense
for him should wanted to fight

But now a change has come her way
a dream of someone else
She feels with them she’s lived another day
never before she’s felt

She wonders who he is and what he fights for
does he love another
Or is he alone, searching too for destiny’s core
for that perfect lover

She’s built up a life of him in her mind
perfect is it she has imagined
She believes him to be amazing and kind
this fantasy she is frightened

A life she has and people she loves dear
but restless she’s been now
For a long time, a trickle of a tear
this she cannot allow

But as much as she tries to bury it away
it just won’t let go
She’ll picture him in her arms forever days
the seed has now flowered and grown

Is this fantasy or reality she does not know
she feels though sure
That he is one that would make her grow
she feeds the dream more

For the seed is now sown

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...''
