Some old-ish song lyrics I wrote. I can't even imagine how many years ago it was, really. Two or three, at least. Anyway. Yeah. Sorry--I don't really claim to be any good at it, but I do like to write....
The Prayer of the Faithless[/u][/i]
I saw you sitting there Looking like the world was crashing in on you I wonder what life threw at you To make you feel that way
I know you've got dreams What kept you from them?
Chorus: Don't abandon your dreams Not now, you're so close I'll sing a prayer for you To help you reach the stars
I know there's a side to you That no one ever sees Will you ever let anyone in? Will you ever let yourself heal?
What happens to dreams When reality gets in the way? Chorus
There something about living in this world That tears you apart inside I guess it gets to all of us Sometimes
I know it's tough I guess reality got in your way
Chorus x 2
You'll reach the stars again

I really like that. Its really nice. I mean you could call it poetry...but its not...its a song. I would like to hear how you've got that one planned out...I mean where you sing words and stuff...the timing I guess is the word I'm looking for. You'll have to sing/word it to me when you get your mic ^_^

Haha. I tried to write music for it once and failed horribly... kind of a shame. I'm worse at composing than I am at anything else....

. I've just seen your "Location" change...sorry. Had to put that in. When it comes to writing songs, its a lot harder than it looks. You have to have notes and stuff. Now that sounds SO...lame...but when you think about it...what separates Poetry from song writing? Notes, timing. What I would suggest to you, is to just...one day, you'll be in a mood/train of thought about something...be it death, relationships or whatever. If you think of the last words of the stanza/line first...I think that makes rhyme easier.

I understand the difficulty. That's why I can't do it. Because I suck.

You don't suck. You have FAR to many talents for that. If you don't like writing songs...try your hand at poety, then if you want, you could convert that to a song if its any good.

<<^^ I don't try to be good at poetry, dear. It's not one of my skillz. I just do it for fun/to vent.
