Transition

I wish I could sing
Like an angel
But I'm a demon
I wish I could play
An instrument
But I'm too lazy
The learning curve is high
Maybe
It's too late
But I know
What I want to say

Scar to story to song

She was my one
My only
But she left me
They made me believe
I could do anything
But I watched it all
Fall
With me
Crash and burn
Rise from the ashes

Scar to story
Scar to story
Story to song
Story to song

Scream
At the top of your lungs
We can take those words
And make lyrics
So scream
At the top of your lungs
We can take those words
And make some lyrics
For a song

Pain to message
Pain to message

Scar to story
Scar to story
Story to song
Story to song

Transition
The transition
Transition
The transition

Your strong use of sharp imagery, alliteration and repetition propel your poetry forward...well done...as always

Key/Legend

word = speaking/singing
(word) = whispering/echo
[word] = stern voice/screaming
