This Is How I Write:

Feeling kinda lonely
I need to let it out
I'll write to you this poem
But what should I write about?
Maybe death, of one I love
Or maybe make it fake
I'll place myself in anothers life
So these emotions overtake
Maybe I'll write about my love
For someone I don't know
I'll write and think just how I'd feel
And let my fake love flow
Or maybe I'll make up these lines
About such harder times
About depression, hate, or lust to kill
So it will enthrall your mind
Maybe I'll write of this crap
Thats hidden here, intead
I couldn't write of something good
For sad things stick within your head
These sad things that make you wonder
Of just how it would feel
To be the people, I write about
Wouldn't that be so surreal
Maybe death or crippled hearts
But not this harmony
I might have a perfect life
But thats not for you to see
You see my pain, my lifeless hate
And paint yourself a picture
Of my art and words that run so deep
Two different worlds from one scripture
I hide from thee, reality
And create a life askew
But this time it's much more intresting
As you read this lifes debut
I'm sitting here so lonely
This is my fake life, tonight
This is where I sit, alone
And this is where I write
This is where I ponder
The things that others think
Just what passes through their mind, unqiue
When they gaze on this black ink
I'm sitting, sadly, still alone
I've told you how I write
Could you tell me how you think?
It would give me such delight
And now the ending to my poem nears
And what will be my phrase
What ending, unexpected
Might astound you, or amaze
Should there be a change of misery?
Or maybe something bright
My character could have one more chance
But no, thats just not right
So I'm sitting here thinking
Of an end that just might fit
Could you provide an ending please?
I'm not the best, I do admit
Thinking, thinking, constantly
Sitting in my home
Thinking of just how to end
This fake and fragile poem
And all these things run through my head
Trying to make this poem right
Faking my emotions
But this is how I write
