The Pen is Mightier than the Sword

This was written a little while back. It was an attempt at writing something that would resemble song lyrics. I don't know that I like it.

 

 

Here I sit

Upon my bed

Thoughts surface,

Dance in my head

Lying awake

Wasting away

There are no mistakes

Just take me away

I can only take so much

Before I begin to crumble

Falling into the void

Into eternity shall I tumble

I try to sleep now in flame

Thinking not of the shame

But I still find myself

Lying awake

Wasting away

There are no mistakes

Just take me away

Looking around

What is it for?

Trying to be found

But afraid of opening that door

Why don't you come in?

Sit down, get to know sin

I'm hardly aware

Barely even here

Lying awake

Wasting away

There are no mistakes

Just take me away

My brain grows soggy

Stomach is queasy

Vision turns foggy

Life becomes so easy

What shall become of me?

Only given time shall we see

I try to climb higher

To see further

Reach deeper

Wield fire

Afraid to look down

Feet forgetting the ground

Making not a sound

But for now, I find myself

Lying awake

Wasting away

There are no mistakes

Just take me away
