Update
I had my first creative writing lesson at uni today and I've fallen in love. I kind of think that maybe I picked the wrong degree and should have done this in the first place, but never mind.
This first lesson was on poetry and we looked at surrealism, juxtaposition and imagery:
Come dance outside with me;
Let's leave this world behind.
Encircle me in your electric current
and leave me feeling blind.
Whisper poison through my bones
and etch hearts into my eyes,
Anything you want...
Because, it's raining glass inside.
--
I'm drowning in a sun-storm
with a rain soaked mind,
like a watered down drink,
a coffee with no caffeine
and a pen with no ink.
You left me with a tongue minus taste-buds
and fingers with no print.
How can I leave my mark
when you stole my...?

In other news... Damon proposed! So I'm now engaged and incredibly happy. We're having a long engagement. Waiting until we're both out of uni and settled and feel the time is right.
