I Used To Be A Good Kid
But Now I Get Into Some Sticky Situations
I Always Have A Plan In Mind
But I Never Follow Through
I Once Wrote In A Diary
But Now I Keep The Problems Inside
If I Could Fly
I Would Go Some Place Quiet
I Never Would Leave
But I Might Get A Little Lonely
I Can't Run Away From Myself
But I Can Get Help From You
I Won't Do It Again
But I Might Need Some Alone Time
I Used To Feel Broken
But Now I Know You're Will Always Be There

Had to do a poem for school, came up with it quick, didn't really think to hard about it.
