Lyrical Poetry

A Glimpse Into Waterloo Dawn

“I walk through the cities of my soul

built with the pressure of despair,

longing, and dangerous hope.

And you walked with me down

the beaches of desolation that consumed me.”

From meditations on love and its fleeting nature to reflections on personal transformation, Colin’s latest collection is as haunting as it is illuminating. Poems like O Lost, Your Hand That Holds the Light, and Brand-New Eyes trace the echoes of human longing, while Madness, Poetry and Addiction and Overdose delve into the darker corridors of existence.

With Waterloo Dawn, Colin Dawson does not merely write poetry—he bares his soul on the page, offering an unfiltered look into moments of passion, heartbreak, and transcendence.
