Memoirs of a solider, Silenced. [FINISHED]
Memoirs of a soldier, silenced.
It’s hard to find normality here. You start to miss the most bizarre things; walking your dog, going to the shop for a bloody loaf of bread, driving your piece-of-junk car, heading for a big old fry up with the lads, arguing with your deranged delinquent of a brother, your wife. I used to be just like you, sitting at home; watching the odd bit...
Memoirs of a solider, Silenced.
So, you haven’t heard from me in a long, long time. But I am back. This is the beginning of my creative piece for uni, it’s a little (or a lot) rough around the ages. But, I just wanted to test the waters. I hope you enjoy, and bare with me as I journey this one out. x

But the mundane sets in
We play by the rules
And plow through the days
The years take us miles away
From the time we wondered when
We’d find a way back to then
And when you least expect
Opportunity walks through the door
You suddenly connect
With the thing that you forgot
That you were looking for
And there you are
Right in the middle of what you love
With the craziest of company
You’re having a...
And you take a moment Promise me this: That you’ll stand by me forever But if God forbid fate should step in And force us into a goodbye If you have children someday When they point to the pictures Please tell them my name Tell them how the crowds went wild Tell them how I hope they shine Long live the walls we crashed through I had the time of my life with you.

May your tears come from laughing, you find friends worth having With every year passes, they mean more than gold May you win and stay humble, smile more than grumble And know when you stumble, you’re never alone.

She’s looking like her mama, a little more every day, one part woman, the other part girl. To perfume and make up, from ribbons and curls, trying her wings out in a great big world. But I remember butterfly kisses after bedtime prayers, stickin’ little white flowers all up in her hair. You know how much I love you daddy…

I am exhausted, mentally and physically. I can’t sleep. I can just think, and think, and think, and it’s driving me insane. But, I had my first (and last) exam today, so hopefully that’ll be some stress out of the way, I say some, because I know that just wasn’t it. I spent the guts of 2 weeks revising for that exam, and I felt like I knew nothing, it was horrid. I cried,...

Would you like to fall in love in the next year?
I think that is one of the most amazing things that can ever happen to any 2 people, regardless of weither it lasts for the long-term, so I really wouldn’t mind if it did.
How do you feel about the last person who texted you?
I like him, alot :) and I wish he wasn’t 1000 miles away right now. 6 sleeps <3

And, it's goodbye to 2010...
I’ve been meaning to post a blog for the last week or so, but I’ve literally not had a minute to myself. I have been busy with the people I love, spending quality time together over the Christmas holiday. I have had one of my favourite Christmas’ this year. I found someone who makes me so happy, who makes everything feel better and now I understand why it didn’t work with...

Actually obsessed with her at the minute!
It’s not that we’re scared, it’s just that it’s delicate. So, why’d you fill my sorrow with the words you borrow from the only place you’ve known? And why’d you sing hallelujah, if it means nothing to you? Why’d you sing with me at all? We might live like never before. Well there’s nothing to give, but how can we ask for more? We might make...
A heart that’s full up like a landfill, a job that slowly kills you, bruises that won’t heal. You look so tired-unhappy, bring down the government, they don’t, they don’t speak for us. I’ll take a quiet life, a handshake of carbon monoxide, with no alarms and no surprises, no alarms and no surprises, no alarms and no surprises, Silence, silence. This is my...
