Suddenly
suddenly
everything looks good
so full of surprise
a flash of your smile
and light projected from your eyes
suddenly
there is so much more
you have unlocked the rusty door
my love is free
suddenly
everything is good
and you are the only thing i see
from a distance you are a mirage
up close a dream
suddenly
everything is an utopian scene
i am a cloud
and in the sky i want to shout aloud
suddenly
everything looks good
life is as it should be,
without its dreary shroud
James Garratt – Sunday 7th March 1993 (Aged 18)

It feels almost like something I’d write now. Thank you, that’s a lovely response. There’s some of my future writing style and identity in this one

“Future writing style”? What do you mean?

Well everyone’s writing has its identity, phrasing, use of words etc. I can see bits in here that would become more common in my writing.
