As it seems

You stand by the window
Starin at the rain
You hope for the sunshine
To take away the pain

Nothin's ever as it seems
I thought I saw a bird
But my mind was swimmin
With your every word

Tell me, is this real
Or am I dead
I wish I felt blank
There's pain instead

There's a rainbow
Across the sky
But you see just black
I don't know why

Nothin's ever as it seems
I thought I saw you fly
But it's just me
Don't know why I cry

Cos nothin's ever as it seems
Nothin's ever as it seems
Roll back, enjoy the dreams
Nothin's ever as it seems.

Do you imagine the tune, the melody when you write something? I always imagine a strumming behind your poetry, because it deserves to be lyrical instead.

Yes I do! Almost everything I write has a rhythm/melody behind it. I just don't have the talent/insturments/technology to record the music.

Though, most of the time, I forget the melody to the poem the day after I write it - like a dream.
