WhatWhyHow???

This year, I set myself the foolish task of trying to write something every day, and what you see here is the result. None of this is finished, polished, or in any way good. It's usually a few lines at the end of the day when I'm tired, my head's broken, and this nonsense spills out of it onto the page. Feel free to comment away, and if you think anything has any potential then let me know and I might have a go at working on it further.

But hang on, where's the first month? You've ripped us off! I hear you say... Well, yes. I have been writing since the beginning of January, but it's taken me a while to get the blog up, so everything here is a month old.

I still

I still wait like a dog
Hanging on the sound of the swinging gate
So I can throw open the door for you

I still lie every night
Warming the sheets to welcome you in
So I can kiss your lips goodnight

I still wake every morning
Making you a flask of coffee before you leave
So I can wave you on your road

I still love you in undiscovered ways
Tingling in anticipation and realisation when you're near
So I can reach out and touch you
