Purple Boots...

So the prince and princess finally met after much struggle and many heartbreaks. It was a full moon night and they were finally together in the perfumed rose garden. Alone and intoxicated, they were eager for their lips to meet. For this kiss was destined.

And then suddenly the princess realised she had forgotten to floss.

"Anthem"



The birds they sang
at the break of day
Start again
I heard them say
Don't dwell on what
has passed away
or what is yet to be.
Ah the wars they will
be fought again
The holy dove
She will be caught again
bought and sold
and bought again
the dove is never free.

Ring the bells that still can ring
Forget your perfect offering
There is a crack in everything
That's how the light gets in.

We asked for signs
the signs were sent:
the birth betrayed
the marriage spent
Yeah the widowhood
of every government --
signs for all to see.

I can't run no more
with that lawless crowd
while the killers in high places
say their prayers out loud.
But they've summoned, they've summoned up
a thundercloud
and they're going to hear from me.

Ring the bells that still can ring ...

You can add up the parts
but you won't have the sum
You can strike up the march,
there is no drum
Every heart, every heart
to love will come
but like a refugee.

Ring the bells that still can ring
Forget your perfect offering
There is a crack, a crack in everything
That's how the light gets in.

Ring the bells that still can ring
Forget your perfect offering
There is a crack, a crack in everything
That's how the light gets in.
That's how the light gets in.
That's how the light gets in.

A Portrait of Life...

Look at the lurking lioness...what a beautiful shot!

One day. I'll see these with my own eyes.

Train journeys. 

What a handsome bird!

A burning moon?

Foot and Thistle. I love this shot. 

Like a colourful painting. I could hang this on my bedroom wall. 

Oasis.

I want to go there! One day.

Playthings. 

Chopsticks.

Helpless.

Gathering Dust...

From the archives,

"You think its easy to get a guy. most of them just look at me and think oh here's a piece of meat. soon enough they find that the piece of meat has feelings and my brain becomes a liability. I want to fall in love too you know but it becomes so damn hard to find someone who'll just hold you and accept you with all your flaws and idiosyncrasies. I mean sure I'm nice sometimes but I'm gonna be a pain too. And I'm looking for that person who would see the worst in me and still manage to say 'I've seen your worst but I'll help you get over it so that I never have to see it again' and really mean it. That's the sort of person I'm looking for. and that's the kind of person I don't find"

Like A Moth To A Flame...

It's the pain that draws me towards you. Always has. Always will.

Cry Me A River Baby...

Next time I think I am emotional and extra sensitive, I am going to think about him. And all the men I know. And I'll feel better.

Stars...

"Why am I different from others?"

"Why, do you have to be like others?"



Simply beautiful.

The sky is vast enough for all of us to shine. And when we all shine, the sky will only look more beautiful.
