I want to write about dandelions, Covering the side of the road, Making the city a meadow. So why does my pen always write about pain, Why do I only think about sad moments.
I want to write about the sun shining, My skin soaking it up, Warming my soul. So why do I always think of sad memories, Why do tears spring to my eyes.
I want to write about love, How I finally feel whole, Complete at last. So why do I only write about it all ending, Why do I wait for my death.
I want to write about the good, So why do I only see the bad? Why can't I let myself be happy?
My constant struggle of wanting to write poetry to show my happier side, but the inevitability of writing about pain.
