Slipping away (tunless song)

by cuddelyxbutxviciousXxX   Jul 13, 2005


*this is a song dedicated to a boy that i loved, i just wrote this so here goes nothing...*
I let you go away
To a place that I can't stay
Too long so..
I let you slip through my fingers
In a time where i refuse to linger
With your face in my mind

So I stay behind
To watch you walk away from me
My soul stares in awe at you
Cause I know I'm dying soon

Tears I cry
At night because you're gone again
And you can't be my superman
Anymore
I can't save the world
From a lifetime of destruction and pain
But in time i do realize
That i have to save my self
From this lore

So I stay behind
To watch you walk away from me
My soul stares in awe at you
Cause I know I'm dying soon

I see your face in this place
Where i can't escape
I see your eyes
Beneath the fireflies
Painting me a message in the tainted skies

So I stay behind
To watch you walk away from me
My soul stares in awe of you
Cause I know I'm dying soon

Lying here in the dark
Where nobody can see me smile
At the jokes that you have told me
Where only lights could see....

You slipping away

    This was fine, I understand it was a song, I liked the fact that not all the lines were the same syllable wise, because it would be too sing songy that way. A couple of rhymes sounded like you stressed slightly over the rhymes. If you set in your mind that the poem is going to rhyme, then it needs to rhyme with ease. It is easy to read a poem and tell whether a person pressed the rhyming or not. Try not to. If you can't rhyme a certain word, or it doesn't sound correctly, change the line, or the word. Other than that this is about your life i can see, specefic to you, so i didnt get much feeling, but dont let that bother you, You SHOULD ALWAYS WRITE FOR YOURSELF ABOVE EVERYBODY ELSE. Then if you can, try and write broader, just for practice.
