Unfinished

By katraylor

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

When we fall astray, when we lose the fight, we will go our ways in the fading light, and I'll walk away in the dark of night and you'll listen as I go.Spring 2001, This is something I wrote in Spanish class my senior year of high school... Spanish class was really boring... it was Spanish I, you see... Anyway. I've always wanted to write songs, and this seemed actually to have some potential- it has a rhythm and everything! *laughs* But I never finished it, most likely because I keep getting discouraged from writing songs by my constant failure to teach myself guitar (and I a music major!) *sigh* Yes. Well, do tell me what you think. Someday I might even finish it... Written January 31st, 2002 © on Jan 30 2002 04:12 PM PST   20 • 0 • 1
