Biography

A tragic twist of fate has led me to writing, I've been "paper bound" ever since.

Samples

Amidst the things that didn't matter Between the lives we've left behind Adrift, untied, cut up and scattered We hold the clues we'll never find   We live our lives in ways we've crafted We've learned to hide our fear of heights Replay the days before we parted Relive the lives we led by nights Sometimes you cry when no one's watching Sometimes I cry when no one hears We carry bullets we've been dodging And tear apart when counting years And time is nothing but a token Of words unsaid and patched up dreams We stitch our cuts and glue what's broken To feel alive or so it seems What's left of us will drown in colours Of broken vows and past mistakes What's left of us belongs to others But what we've cut still bleeds and aches One day you'll find me taken hostage By someone else's words of hope I'll sign the page and pay the postage Unmoore the boat and cut your rope Amidst my chances and your choices One day I will run out of words Except that time won't mute these voices I'll stay the part of you that hurts
