Notes

Pen in my hand

Sharper than a knife

Trying to create the right

Assortment of words

Crumpled papers

All across the floor

Within my body

I am at war

 

I keep writing

I keep writing

I keep writing

Notes

 

Words on replay

Roaming through my mind

If it hadn't happened

Everything would be fine

It messed me up

Made me go insane

Wish I could be numb;

Not feeling my pain

 

I keep writing

I keep writing

I keep writing

Notes

 

Trying to write

The perfect letter

So she'd understand

This is for the better

It' not her fault

She's not all the blame

She was just hurt

But right just the same

 

I keep writing

I keep writing 

I keep writing
