Not many have seen
What I've let you see -
This scared, lost place
Inside of me.
So deeply tired of this road
That stretches far too long,
Weary of lost adventures
I write into my songs.
If I could finally rest
In a safe and peaceful place,
I'd write the world a Heart
To help our pain erase.
If solitude were mine,
I'd gladly stand alone,
And love the hands of time
If I had myself a home.

What was it Virgina Woolf said - (to be a writer) one needs quiet and a room of one's own? ... or words to that effect and this work brings that to mind.
And I love the title!
Robin Ouzman Hislop's poetry is certainly in dialogue with some of the key architects of the 'poetics of indeterminacy' – both the Modernist strands represented by the likes of Beckett and Stein, and the postmodernist strands represented, initially,
