Tears only lonely
Empty threats
And faint reminders
Of injustice
Lonely tears
Cannot comfort me
With all these burdens
I'm sinking down free
Times get rough
Don't I know
Things may shatter
People may go
I never dreamed
Our hearts would bleed
Can't you see, I loved you
It was you who didn't love me
Again, we have this
Again, we have this interesting thread of entropy---never parading itself, always in a subtle position as a process (usually with verbs ending in "ing"). Your understanding of entropy, both in its local form during ordinary lifetimes, and in the implication of the ontological or eschatological extreme, is, in my experience, unusual for someone still in the full flower of youth and adolescence. I do not look down on your age, not at all. I look up to it, because I did not have nearly the innate wisdom that you obviously have; and you not only have it, you deploy it in your poems. About the thread though, I like the aspect is indicates of your ability to control and shape your material in such a subtle way. The mastery of that, which I believe you will possess, is well demonstrated in Stevens' work. Long thought of as a "miscellaneous" poet in the 30's and 40's, in his final years, readers and scholars alike were beginning to notice the interior references and connections between the various poems. You are starting that way earlier than he did . . . and please do not stop. Stevens said poems could occur, but they would be better off being caused (that is, planned). Your deployment of the internal connectors, demonstrated by the entropic themes in several of your poems, gets top marks.

Unrequited
It was Mandy Moore, I think, who said "One sided love is never gonna work"
An inescapable symptom of the human condition, to want what we can't have, no?
Such a beautiful homage to such a befouling reality. I salute you.
Speaking of sheet music, think you can help me learn to write that?

haha thank you so much!! I'm glad it's relatable... it's the worst feeling in the world though isnt it.... thank you for commenting :)
But
I love the lyrics - in your face de facto blunt - still too many syllables in last lie. Recommend losing the "but". End the previous line and understate the last line (under your voice for emphasis - understatement and accusation). Just a thought. Enjoyed - sheet music and everything - impressive! Needs a bridge that reflects the title: Love on the single side is single-sided love/lonely sided one sided single sided love - something that plays on unrequited solo sided only sided love (something true and catchy) hmmmmm. ~Star~

ya you're right... thank you
ya you're right... thank you for the advice!!.... i wrote a bit of the chorus... but not sure how i feel about it so i didnt post it xP... ehh still needs a lot of work
