I tried to kill the pain,
But it only bought more,
I tried to feel numb again,
but I don't know what for,
Everything you've ever done,
Is carved into my mind,
doesn't matter where I run,
I can't leave you behind,
Everytime I think I'm over you,
you quickly put me right,
A reflex smile's all you have to do
Before Im drifting out of sight...
I'm wearing your colours
from elbow to wrist,
singing lyrics to a song
that doesn't exist,
I'm wearing your colours
from elbow to wrist,
singing lyrics to a song
that doesn't exist...
I numb my soul in alchohol,
Just trying to numb the pain,
My bloods turning to methonol,
As you slowly turn me insane,
Everytime your sat next to me,
It makes me want to weep,
Hold it together for all to see,
Then I cry myself to sleep,
I emerge from my cloud of smoke,
Whenever I hear Your voice,
My life is such a f***ing joke,
But I don't have any choice...
I'm wearing your colours
from elbow to wrist,
singing lyrics to a song
that doesn't exist,
I'm wearing your colours
from elbow to wrist,
singing lyrics to a song
that doesn't exist...
I used to be able to block out the pain,
but now the drugs don't work for sure,
so how do I get you out of my brain
When I don't wanna love you anymore?
Author notes
This is a prewrite, but i'm too much of an idiot to figure out how to enter it as a prewrite.
any way, standard story;
Girl meets Girl,
Girl falls for girl,
girl doesnt give a rat's a*&e,
girl spends 2 and a half years getting over girl,
by writing far too many poems.
yeah, it's that old chestnut.

fantastic write! -
This was alright. I like the repeating stanza. You made a few mistakes that you should probably consider revising. Overall, it wasn't amazing but it was alright. In other words, it caught my attention.
