20something n going no where

Like a blind man, slowed by care
we tentatively shuffle, too aware
Doom and gloom! It might go wrong
We tell ourselves, and creep along.
Like a Tortoise , within our shell
peeping out, if all goes well

If we're the tortoise, she's the hare
covering the ground without a care
To watch her soar; to watch her run
it's clear to all who really won
She'll see it all! All the sights
From ancient ruins to city lights.

She's never beat and never lost
never cold in morning frost
she wraps that smile round her face
To keep her warm in every place.

Well, i've recently learned that you should never bury your head in the security of other people, no matter how much you're there for them they may not be there for you when you need them. I guess i kind of knew that anyway though...moving on ...a quick post inbetween looooong shifts at work!!

As a child on Christmas eve
i eagerly await a lie
one that you'd have me believe
As life goes flying by

You claimed we'd lay awake tonight
to catch him creeping around
But as i turn your mind takes flight
and you sleep without a sound

Left alone to stand and fight
I know not who to blame
That cause i laid until the light
I saw Santa never came

& though i envy you your sleep
at least i learnt to fight
and if he comes again to creep
i'll give him quite a fright!

Hello blog friends, sorry i've been so inactive lately. My girlfriend came over from Denmark and we were out seeing all of the sights in Yorkshire We did all of the classic things, a walk around Malham cove (where we got to climb a waterfall), a trip to Brimham rocks (where we had to run through a HUGE patch of nettles ouch!), a lovely day out at Fountains Abbey, York art gallery and castle museum, a walk around Yorks city walls and we even got to go and watch man utd play!, a carboot sale and i also took her to play golf. Good times.
She's a budding artist and has just finished her website where you can view all of her work: http://www.apaintbrush.com/

I'll post photos of the days out in Yorkshire soon, although i'm working 12-1am today and 12-1am tomorrow too...vainly trying to clear the debts before heading back down south for uni.
