I walk the dog late at night, around the streets until we stand on the prom looking out to sea. You can see for miles, the water black and still. Emptiness where the town ends and the sea begins.
As I gaze upon the sunlit sky, just as the light disappears,. I think what it would be like to be a bird, free, no fears,. Birds may fly, just as fish may swim,. Life happens, try not to fall in,.
Zero: zero zero... It's that time again. When the shadows of the old day, Relieve and show their pain. And in bed sleepless I watch, As the mistakes of the day are played...
Take a look into. The mind of yours truly. Even if these thoughts. Are quite unruly. Measure perfect streamers. Down the page. These trance like songs stuck in my head all day. No matter where I go.

All our lives we ask questions; Who am I What should I be doing And why do all bad things happen to me. I try to be positive I swear, I really do.

Fifty shades of emotion, that herald my dark devotion. It used to be speed that fed my need, now new rivers feed needs ocean. Perhaps once it was chaos, the thing upon which I fed.
"What's love and where is it?" I ask myself.
In you I see. Your silent eyes Your whispering lips, A known surprise To sink those ships. In you I see. Your quiet heart Your steady smile, Where can we start. It's been a while. In you I see. Oh.
