Biography

I am a 26 year old male from Manchester, UK. Although I am very new to poetry, I have been very fascinated by music lyrics and spent a lot of time trying to work out hidden meanings to songs. I often try to write song lyrics but they end up as poems. I look forward to writing poetry and hope you enjoy what I produce.

Samples

The white glare stares cold onto your eyes Tiny words crawl through your intrigued mind Invisible opnions make choices without proof Connections creep from your invisible speeches Type. Tiny words spin out above the earh Invisble speeches bounce back to your heart The white glare stares back onto your eyes Both Connected by invisible speeches Type. *Wanting more* I said I gotta hangover from hell And you can tell, I fell Hided away in the spirit Took things over limit Spilled the mixture too much this time I said I gotta hangover from hell And you can tell, I fell Saw no streetlights atall, Fall Haven't got a way no more Stopped too late this time **In the cold of the hay** A frozen man could never walk His lips would be frozen, unable to talk People would see him all stood still Stuck at the bottom of life’s steep hill Homeless and trapped every single day Sleeping in the cold of the hay A young man asks about the story of love Frozen and still, It is Impossible to say A rising sun touches the cracks in the wall Awake from his sleep, reminded of the fall Sunshine shrinks onto his sad face Life is a marathon, he lost the race In the cold of the hay In the cold of the hay ***Mind your way** I have always been one to care A person to make the world fair A person to go the extra mile I have always been one to smile I have always been one to hide away A person to lock things up inside A person secretly living a lie I have always been one to cry I have always tried to smile A person that tried to go the extra mile A person to try and make the world fair I have always tried to care I am three people but not myself A person that has been left on the shelf A person confused by the bad things Minded my way but now totally astray
