Sad Girl courtesy of http://www.flixya.com
The young woman sits and talks to her friend
Telling of her life she fights to defend
For although she has a successful career
Sometimes a price too high that costs her dear
She feels alone, friends far away
Family too that she misses day by day
Her heart breaks for the simple things
And all the happiness that they bring
But the simple things are hard fought
For a busy life is a soul easily bought
So what does one have to do
To fight for a happiness that’s long overdue
Sometimes she just wants to scream
Inside she’s bursting at the seams
She’s not asking for much, just some love
Which she feels is lacking as is fun
Even though she’s intelligent and has a heart of gold
She feels like a little girl lost, her dreams sold
Grappling for air, trying to breath
In an ocean she is sinking, lost her belief
Her friend though tries to put her at ease
For it breaks their heart to see her on her knees
This little girl lost, confused and sad
Money doesn’t buy back dreams that you had
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...''
