Sad SongsA Poem by Katie KistlerL
Three am, I'm feeling emo
Grab a blanket Blast some Remo Friday night, as far as we know There's a show to see Punk rock usually makes it better Especially in colder weather Cause we feel bummed And we're in sweaters So we sing it out Well we scream out all our feelings And we bump and grind to Heartstrings And we fill up on the gas And wait for night to bring All the laughs and all the good times All the tunes and all the new rhymes Same old stories Same old highlights Same old songs to sing I don't usually feel left out But I think I tore my lungs out They are filled with tar And lyrics And I can't quite breathe I am done with being so fake That I cannot even think straight I am gay, I think And sad And that's a thing to be said Am I sure I'm never sure Always following the crowd Always listening to you Because you talk so loud But now it's ten past three And all I see Are trees and cigarette smoke It is warm inside And cold out here And I should probably sleep But I just made up some coffee And I miss when you're not talking You fill up my head with words So that I cannot think On all the bad things Stone cold memories The things in me I hate It's getting late But all that's in my mind Is a blank and wanting slate It says write on me Please write on me Make some happy songs And I'm sorry, friend But happy songs Are not where I belong And I won't sing along to you Until you give me this much room To be real enough to tell you I'm an open empty room I'm awake and I am listening To songs that I can't sing I am sad today and that's okay Cause I'm faking every week Good night Good night sleep tight Good night Don't let those sad songs bite © 2017 Katie Kistler |
