Thread: Walking Away

    Walking Away

    i thought it was forever; i thought you were in love
    but when push came to shove, it just got too tough
    you wanted a baby, someone to share our bliss
    and when you got one, it came to this
    you found out, then you left me
    yet it was your idea originally
    not pushing the blame on you
    but this is your burden too
    how could i be so dumb
    to believe you were the one
    or at least one responsible
    enough to handle trouble
    and not turn and walk away
    like you have done today
    how could i be so foolish?
    how did it come down to this?
    Our love has gone away
    but a baby is here to stay
    and my lifes flipped upside down
    there no turning back now
    theres no where for me to stray
    i have to stop and watch you walk away

    Not bad, its always good to get your thoughts out; it is kind of generic though. Its all very straight forward. One thing you could work on is the rhyming, I think its usually best to either rhyme or not rhyme and not mix them both up. I see that you were trying to but other words or rearrangements of them could have worked out better. Also its best to avoid cliche usually, for example "push came to shove," is a pretty common phrase, just try to avoid things like that. Just keep at it, you'll find your style eventually.
