I used to write good poems
And have words flow from my mind
But that’s no longer true
This cruel world has caught up to me
And has me singing the blues

I wrote about love and adventure
The stars up in the sky
I wrote about personal growth and friendship
And the injustice of today’s society

Now I write about drepression and pain
The difficult choices I make
I write about the struggles I’m going through
And that’s not fair to you

I used to write good poems
And soon that will be true again
I just have to take a brake and breathe
And let the words flow once again
