Isolated and alone in Dublin City Centre
I sat in my room behind a locked door and no one could enter
Then the song bursts through and courses my veins 
And I want to kiss him in Irish rains 
And he’s got arms that hold me close
But he looks at me like he’s seen a ghost
As something spirals out from where he stands
And I know that when we’re holding hands
It’s only aloft in the caverns of our minds
I ran after him when he left me behind
And begged him to stay 
But he looked away
And I had a suitcase in tow
And I said I will not let you go
And I haven’t seen you since 2011
And it was hell but it was also heaven
As we cascade on the rocks
And put our pennies into the slots
As they churn and turn out a symbol of us
You are so much more than lust
You are something I can trust
And God knows why I let you go
In all these years I still don’t know
Was it circumstance or a twist of fate
Was it in the moment that my breath bate
Or was it wandering a solitary pool 
And looking back to when I was in school
And a guy that glanced off my shoulder
Someone I chanced when I was older
And they say mother and family is my duty
But they do not compare to your beauty
And I cannot build castles in the sky
Only to watch them burn as I die
In hollow cold walls I made for myself
I found you and that is my greatest wealth
