I haven't finished it yet but I posted it on AOL and got loads of criticism from people who thought it was a poem and someone said i was living in the 1920's... You guys will take it seriously though, so tell me wotcha think! It's meant to be sung by a male voice, just to let y'all know.
I'm walking along this barren road,
With my heart on my sleeve and a frog in my throat.
My hair is wet and so are my jeans,
'Coz I stepped in a puddle right up to my knees...
The road ahead,
looks rough and trying.
I stare at my feet.
Cars zoom by.
Within them people,
Who I'll never meet.
(Chorus)
I'm walking along
This barren highway.
Home is just
A couple of miles away.
My legs are tired
From all the walking.
My friends are with me
But I don't feel like talking.
Now they've gone.
I'm on my own.
I'm walking home,
All alone. |

Nice song, and they thought that you were from 1920, okay...
There are a couple of typos. Like:
mle - male
and is that trying - tiring?
And also I think it is a little short, I would love it to be longer.
Apart from that, nice job. Just make it as long as your stories! |

| Yeah I like it so far. I can definitely tell it's unfinished, but what you do have is good. Keep it up! |
