The feeling creeps in
Crippling my thoughts
I feel utterly useless
Failure has a face
...
Is it strange that
Sad makes me happy
I love sad songs
I write sad poems
...
We are grown up
But would still do
With a good ol' pat on the back
Followed by a reassuring voice
...
I've been wanting to
Wake up pack up man up
I've been wanting to
Leave so i could finally live
...
The one you told you'll love forever
The one you told you'll leave them never
The one that woke up and told you it's over
The one that you thought you'll never get over
...
She said
I've tried to understand you
Given you all the attention i can afford
But still you're a mystery
...
Love finds us easily
But finding love is never easy
It's funny how easy it is
To point out what made you love
...
If i write only what's right
There'd be nothing left
Under my poems
Then all my work would be wrong
...
As the curtains close
On the year that was
I look back at the now
Heavier scale of memories
...
He had had her hooked
She always read his work
So he figured
He'd reach out to her
...
