The Three Legged Squirrel...A silent figure slowly makes his way through the dark looming entrance of the Père Lachaise cemetery. The metro was busy this morning and the dishevelled figure wears an expression of sorrow on his face. Not even the chirping of the birds could move his frown, in fact, even when one soars down to inspect him further, it only seems to irritate him further. The bird flies off, and heads towards the living so that may bring it some joy. As the figure hobbles over the cobbles, sheltered by ancient chestnut trees he mutters to himself. Quiet enough so that he can feel that Nature won't hear, yet just loud enough for passers by to hear, just lThe Three Legged Squirrel...

The Willow TreeThe rain set early in to-night, as I stood beneath the willow tree.The Willow Tree
Polly still carved into the wood. I like to come back and scratch another mark for our anniversary, another flick of the knife for a year that you should have been alive. You used to set a camp-fire under this very tree, just to keep me warm, even if the wood was wet.
There was a blackness to the smoke that night, only three years ago, and a lack of warmth in the fire. Your eyes gave you away, and you didn't even need to say a word. There was stone in them, deeply eng

Bosco LakeCan we go back to Bosco Lake? I remember the reflection in the water, the way your eyes would makeBosco Lake
a shimmering glow. The helicopters used to drown out your voice, but I wouldn’t want to listen anyway. It was never the word’s noise but the smile, never faltering, all day.
I heard Bosco Lake had been drained, so I can no longer stare at the fish, or at my own reflection looking back. Mirrors were always too clear, but the blurred lake would hide the bad. I just wish I could stare at something that hides the cracks.

Lavender SummerWhere in the life that I lead do I have time to while away, and sleep under willow trees or get lost beneath the hayLavender Summer
I used to say I was a student, that I read a lot of books, when all the while in summer I was sleeping in any nook
I could find. Precariously placed on branch tops with hula hoops from the store and our experiments with hops.
My favourite place to sleep was in the the lavender field, by the back of Rachel's. I used to say goodbye to her
and smell the sleeve of my coat. I used to think it was her smel

Lock and KeyShe keeps herself guarded Away from the world, Her heart has hardened. Distant and cold She stands in the rain, So raw and alone. Will she ever find The key to her soul, To a love that’s kind. A love that warms And adores her so, That embraces the storm. Ceasing the flash, And muffles the noise While shackles turn to ash she kept herself guarded but now is no more uncertainties are discardedLock and Key

Born To LoseAfraid of the way it always ends Afraid to be hurt, to love again Afraid of the way I always feel Afraid that I'm wrong when I think it's real Afraid of the way I always look like a fool Afraid that there is no exception to this ruleBorn To Lose
Just make me love you- Take no answer but yes Just make me love you- Pull me out of this mess Don't let me leave you- Fight until it hurts Don't let me leave you- I'm not sure what I'm worth

Are you still enjoying your course? I forget what it is but I assume it is either photography or art based.

Yeah I'm doing photography as a fine art. The course would be fine if it wasn't so badly run. We're all over the place with tutors quitting n no time table. I love all the crazy cameras we get to use tho.
I like being close to home too, makes it so much easier, 25 min drive n I'm back in lough. Looking forward to seeing chris n the bub of course. I haven't seen any of you lot for yonks. ^_^
