This was written because I'm so upset about leaving school. It's pretty messy in terms of rhyme and rhythm because it's originally for the guitar, but I'm hoping with your help I could make a poem out of it. Any suggestions, however small would be greatly appreciated. Oh, and the word 'craic' is a Northern Irish slang word, meaning 'fun'. Please help!
I know it’s raining with endings,
but I just can’t feel goodbyes.
Not the way I should,
I’ll be seeing you again,
you’ll be seeing me.
That’s what I’m convincing myself
‘cause secretly
I don’t want to say it’s the end.
And I never say things from the heart
funny how this one thing should be the start
funny how the day we said goodbye
I start to realise how I
just can’t live without you
please take it back, say it isn’t so,
I just can’t let you go.
I’d give everything,
to have the past seven years back.
Sitting on the grass, having the craic,
laughter in the hallways,
Christmas, mornings, afternoons,
windy Novembers, sunny Junes,
exam results and red balloons.
My life has been awash with blue.
I guess when they say you don’t know what you have
until it’s too late, it’s true
Give me back the days, the weeks, the years
I’ll open up my arms, I’ll stop all these tears.
Every little thing,
every brick, piece of mortar and slate
I swear I’ll appreciate
I can’t go on this new journey,
new sounds bad
those journeys I made with you
were the best I had.
All the rooms, the corridors, where you are,
are where my journey will start,
Voices echoing in my heart
I’ll remember you,
remember me
‘cause you made the most important one,
right beside me
Remember me
and I’ll accept this mess
I’ll say yes
and make my journey.
