How It Was

How It Was

A Poem by Madeline Man

You used to dance in circles,

You said you needed to please the sun

 

Now you're turning purple,

All the alchohol running through your blood

---------------------------------------------------------------

And no matter how hard you run,

You can't out run the night.

 

And now it's begun,

You can't out chance the sky

 

So take a deep breath,

Try to start over again

------------------------------------------------------------------------

You used to sing in riddles,

You said open your eyes, it begins with the sight

 

Now your eyes are useless,

You don't look through them anyways

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

And no matter how hard you run,

You can't out run the night.

 

And now it's begun,

You can't out chance the sky

 

So take a deep breath,

Try to start over again

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Try to start over again....

wow! i really like this!! having seen people do this. i love it...my favorite part was: "You used to sing in riddles,
You said open your eyes, it begins with the sight, Now your eyes are useless, You don't look through them anyways" it was really good. :)
