Pain destroys, tears, repairs
pain the only certainty in life
Will never let you down
always there, always there
Friends and family should be there
they’re the ones who should care
But pain is a personal thing
heartache it always brings
This naked raw emotion reaches inside
so deep that there is nowhere to hide
You just want to scream and yell out
but no-one will really hear your shouts
Pain a dark companion following always
twisting the knife all your days
All that can be done is to avoid her
otherwise her wrath you’ll incur
Sometimes though pain can be embraced
as a poet or musician does so to face
All that it does and all that it can
turning the bad into a positive plan
This the attitude that should be used
turning negatives to positives, to good use
Never fall in her nasty little traps
or you’ll always have those mishaps
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...''
