For the first time
In a long time
My mind has been empty
And I can't hear
One **** thing
Except the beating of the drum
That has taken the place
Of my heart

-e.w.

I'm sorry,
I'm so sorry
That I can't write
Happy poems

Because I try to write them
To maybe
Cheer me up

But nothing comes out,
But ****** mistakes
And broken pieces


I'm sorry,
I'm so sorry
That I'm just not
Happy

Because I try to
Look on the bright side
And think about
The future

But I can't
When everything is
Falling apart
And I'm left here
Alone


But I promise that
I wish I could be happy
But I just
Can't

And trust me,
I've tried

-e.w.

nine days
until I can finally
get out of this
hell

but I wish it was longer
than for just
the summer

-e.w.

There's nothing I like more
Than to think about
How my life will be
Just 2 or 3 years from
Now

Because most people are
Scared and worried
For the future

While I sit here
Waiting for the day
When I can throw
That graduation cap
High up into the air

Pack my bags
And move somewhere
Where no one knows my
Name

And find someone
Who lights up even my
Darkest days
And is there with me
No matter what;
Who I can spend forever with


I can't wait to leave this place
Of fakes
To find something
Real.

-e.w.

You said
Tomorrow is a new day
That we can leave
All our baggage
Behind us
And start over

And that hit me
Because those are the words
I've been dying
To hear

And of course
It came from the man
Who had been singing on stage
And keeping me alive
And letting me know

I am never
Alone.

-e.w.

Two more days
Until I get to hear
The songs
That keep me alive
And see the two boys
That make all that
Possible

Because they write the
Music
That help me get
Through the days

And lately,
This concert has been
The only thing
I'm staying alive for

-e.w.

It's nights like these
That I wish
I could just
Disappear

-e.w.
