A slightly less depressing poem?
I haven't come up with a title for this yet but I think it's slightly more hopeful and less depressing than my other work.
I believe there
is a girl that
lives halfway
across the world
she feels my pain
thinks she's going
insane
I intend to
meet her one
day and when I
do I will say
You are my life's ambition
and I've been waiting for you to
save me from myself come on
there's no admission
we're both on our way to hell
She's shy and self-conscious
not ready to come out
but I'll sit her down and say
we've got a lot to talk about
I won't give up
I won't stop
dreaming
waiting
for her to walk
into my life
she's all I'm thinking
about she makes me feel
alright
she will complete me
make me happy
I will see her
make it snappy
before she gets away
I want to meet her today
an alibi for my sins
riding shotgun on my hell-bound
life
keeping me on track along the way
Thinking about her makes life
easier
brings a spark of hope
to my failure of a life
Though I've waited for
so long and she has yet to appear
I will keep waiting right here
in what I currently call hell
where pain and embarrassment
lurk
around every corner
where nothing can be
done right
I'll wait in
desperate
pleading
undying
hope that she will come and then
I'll truly fall in love.

I've written one other song about the same person; an Australian lesbo that quite possibly doesn't exist. Anyway I'm looking for constructive criticism and possibly a title idea.
