This a song I started writing when I wanted to be alone and I was and I just didn't want to be around people. and my ffriend Mitchell came up with the ending. let me know what you think. It's a bit repetitive but it's supposed to be like that.
Purposley Unreachable~Gabby A. and Mitchell O.
So I'll go
to the darkest shadows
to the empiest places
to the silentest corners
I can find
and I won't make contact
and I swear I won't talk
and I'll just sit there
and think to myself
how bad I've messed up.
((chorus))
I'll make myself
unreachable
I can't share my feelings tonite
I'll make myself
untouchable
I don't think I handle things tonite
I'll make myself
unmoveable
I just don't want to talk to you tonite
let me be
unreachable
----
So I'll just be alone
so I can wallow
in my own self pity
in my self wrecking ways
in my never ending day of darkness
I'm sure I'm the darkest
I'm sure I'm the saddest
I'm sure I'm the most resentful than i've ever been
before
And I don't know if I'll ever
come back again
(chorus x2)
So I'll just run
away from the arms that loved me
away from the trust that i once had
away from the one that kept me
away from the one that made me glad
and escape for no good reason
Into the shadows tempting
into the places i once feared
Into the darkness creeping
into the heart full of tears...

Thanks everyone, I'm glad you all liked it.

lol bestxbroken, imma chick btw. ANYWAYS..thanks for all the comments, keep em coming.
Wow. As I read the words, they resonate like words from one of the many journals I keep. I wonder if isolation, or the desire to hide is an innate characteristic of an artist, a writer or if it is just a human trait developed from living in this world of over-stimulation? I notice in myself that the need to be "unreachable" as you put it so perfectly, develops right after I begin to run out of things to write. I found myself nodding, agreeing and passionately defending your every word, then having to admit your blunt truth that this hiding was truly self-pity. I love the way you were able to describe both sides of the feeling and the truth behind it in so few words. If this is a song, you are truly cut out to be a songwriter. The true test of the writen word is that the emotion it generated only took one read. Great job.
Wow, I am very flattered. Thank you so much Morning Pages. I have accomplished what I wanted with that song and you helped me realize that. If you like this you should like a poem that I am about to post, called This Is How I Let Go. Yes it was a song by the way and I would love to be a song writer, I think in the past year I've written 56 songs and then about 20 poems. Thank you all for the replies.
YES, I would love to read more. Post it for us all?
Have an expolisivly creative day!
