Her Scream Resides - James

Just like a cloud in the sky, in time it fades away
Just like the sound of your voice getting softer
Feeling the heat rise up pressuring your decisions
Choking the life right out of you...


Would you want it any other way
What would you want me to say
Its all over, its to late
your decisions lead to your fate
Her scream resides…


Life for you came to a hold; it began to blur

You wished you were a never-ending story

Feeling your way through life as if you new what was next

Not everyone’s wish comes true…


Would you want it any other way
What would you want me to say
Its all over, its to late
your decisions lead to your fate
Her scream resides…


There is no perfect ending

Words wouldn’t have changed anything

Would you have the world known you tried?

These are my last words before you died


You wanted there to be some other way

There was something you wanted me to say

Its not over, Its not to late

Your decisions lead to your fate

Her scream resided...

this is so good! my favourite line is "You wished you were a never-ending story", because every now and then i think...well if i lived for just a little bit longer maybe something more can be done to something.

unlike a lot of my poems, this one made sense the whole way through haha and you did an awesome job!

I liked it. It certainity had a different vibe to it.

I'm not very good at writing poems, fiction is more my thing. However, i do enjoy reading good ones like these though.

Thanks, i was actually writing it in a view of a song although it doesnt quite have that structure so it is kinda both lyric and poetic. Feels good to be writing again thats for sure.
