Poem 21: Sometimes...

 

*THINK LYRICS! it's different*



Sometimes...

Why do I feel this way
when I don't do a thing
\...unless I choose to\

times like these don't make sense

I don't know why it happens
\...everything went wrong\

sometimes
the answer to why
has to be a better one
to make the right choice

\--when did my emotions fall apart?
this isn't what I wanted!
I can't see how this choice could be wrong...

it's all I wanted! \

Sometimes
my first answer to why
isn't the better one
but I can't wait that long...

sometimes
the answer is why
when I do what I want
then feel like dying


\--when did my world fall apart?
this isn't what 1 wanted!


I can't see
why it all went wrong...
haven't I been asking?\


I try to do the right thing
always asking myself...
- what I'm doing

but then I fall through the cracks
end up right back,
\where I started\

Sometimes
the answer to why
has to be a better one
to make the right choice

Sometimes
the answer to why
has to be a better one
then I've been hearing

Sometimes I just wanna cry
til I realize...

\that I could change it all\

Poem 31: Waiting

Waiting You stand, at the door of myself. You wait, knowing I know. You heard, my voice acknowledge... But now, there's no sight of me. ...
