Ice Cream

Just a simple song I wrote. Maybe a little teen-angst-y.

The words come to mind, but can't be written down-

they slip in nothing so fast...

The thoughts in my head that I can't seem to keep away,

the slip away so fast,

I can't tell you how many days I've tried to keep it in,

Everything goes wrong, I wanna sing you all my song, but it just...

doesn't work.

And then I scream,

I scream into the wind,

That blows away so easily,

The things I try to make believe...

Maybe one day it'll be okay,

Maybe one day I can show you.

Maybe one day I'll be real,

Maybe one day then you'll feel

the things I cannot say.

Maybe one day.

Maybe one day I can show you I'll be real.

And then I scream,

I scream into the wind,

It falls apart so easily

Just enough for me to see,

The flames that burn within...

Every day, another story, another thing to say,

Another word you cannot find

Another line that doesn't rhyme,

Everything just falls apart,

Everything just falls apart,

you scream...

And then you scream into the wind,

It falls apart so easily,

Just enough for me to see,

The flames that burn beneath...

It is a little "teen-angst-y" as you say, but that doesn't make it any less beautiful.

It's good to know. I was worried this was too whiny to have any poetic value at all haha.

Haha it's not that whiny. You should have more faith in your work. :)

I try to! :) I love my writing, I just worry how it comes across to other people really.

I don't worry about how my work comes across to other people because I write how I feel, and if they don't like it or think it's stupid, then they don't have to read it. Sometimes I just have to get my feelings/thoughts down on paper to help rid myself of something negative.
