About Me

Flights of fancy and imagination open me to intriguing possibilities but sometimes might lack of assertiveness and follow-through. Hounded by instincts which at times lead to the pursuit of eccentric whims... ...

De Profundis (Extract) ~ by Oscar Wilde


Suffering is one very long moment. We cannot divide it by seasons. We can only record its moods, and chronicle their return. With us time itself does not progress. It revolves. It seems to circle round one centre of pain. The paralysing immobility of a life every circumstance of which is regulated after an unchangeable pattern, so that we eat and drink and lie down and pray, or kneel at least for prayer, according to the inflexible laws of an iron formula: this immobile quality, that makes each dreadful day in the very minutest detail like its brother, seems to communicate itself to those external forces the very essence of whose existence is ceaseless change.

What About Me ~ Shannon Noll


Well there's a little boy waiting at the counter of a corner shop
He's been waiting down there, waiting half the day
They never ever see him from the top
He gets pushed around, knocked to the ground
He gets to his feet and he says

[CHORUS:]
What about me, it isn't fair
I've had enough now i want my share
Can't you see i wanna live
But you just take more than you give

Well there's a pretty girl serving at the counter of the corner shop
She's been waiting back there, waiting for her dreams
Her dreams walk in and out they never stop
Well she's not too proud to cry out loud
She runs to the street and she screams

[CHORUS]

So take a step back and see the little people
They may be young but they're the ones
That make the big people big
So listen, as they whisper
What about me

And now i'm standing on the corner all the world's gone home
Nobody's changed, nobody's been saved
And i'm feeling cold and alone
I guess i'm lucky, i smile a lot
But sometimes i wish for more than i've got

[CHORUS]

Hermit


Hermit is who I truly am - always going out on my own, taking a risk and leaving behind mediocrity in favour of what I truly want to do. There is no guarantee that what I have chosen is the right path, for the lantern only lights a short distance and I have somehow always only managed to glimpse a little of what lies ahead of me...then it diminishes...a good explanation why I fell so hard at times.

Strength is what I really need now to continue with the journey that I have started, for there is this overwhelming fear...slowly consuming me from within.
