Lights on, doors slam, go running to the phone. Dial the number hit the hash, and wonder if they're home. Spend the first minute saying hello, fight to say a word. Tell them that you love them and hope that you are heard.

It's about time, I outline, the walls we're within. No doubts fly, no routes fine, the way I'm living.

There is a kind of peace that comes with routine. A familiarity that numbs you to the monotony of everyday life.

To me it means hard work and rough times, you have to work for what you want and there will always be barriers and things/people trying to bring you down.

Most of the day in school I would spend in art as my teacher Mrs Crawford was the only one that seemed to understand me and get my ADHD. She made me feel equal.

Alone in a world of darkness and pain. The world there outside, I don't see the rain. Is the sun shining brightly? I really don't know. There's no place to turn and nowhere to go.

Icy fingers clawed the nape of the old man’s neck as swirling wind whipped up dust and debris into Jack’s tired weathered face.

I see the pain in your lost eyes, and see, all your life ends in cries.

My whispers every night never reached you it seems. Now I only see you in my vivid dreams.

Whether it's going up or down or just round and around I cannot figure it anymore.
