I'm so sick of love songs
So tired of tears.
So done with wishing
you were still here.
I'm so sick of love songs
so sad and slow
So why can't I
turn off the radio?
Every time that song comes on
I think back to you.
Back to the good times
I once knew.
Lying in that wheat field,
Kissing in the rain.
Running through those butterflies
Easing all your pain.
I gotta fix that calendar I have
That's marked November 15th.
Because since there's no more you
There's no more anniversary.
I'm so sick of love songs
So tired of tears.
So done with wishing
you were still here.
I'm so fed up with my thoughts of you
And your memory.
And how every song reminds me
Of what used to be.
I'm so sick of love songs
so sad and slow
So why can't I
turn off the radio?
Why can’t I turn off the radio?

Inspired by Ne-Yo's song "So Sick."

Just to clarify for the people who know me, this is NOT based on actual events. This piece is 100% fiction. So don't worry, me and my lovly phoenix are still together.

First, let me thank you for entering my contest.
Second:
The imagery was very well done. Good grasp of situation, and mood. Creative perspective and conveyance. Easily related to. Original.
The flow seemed a bit off though...but when it did, it was catchy
Job well done
