I especially liked "Soul Promise" - I can kinda relate to that one, especially these lines:



It reminds me of (embarrassed) a time in my teenage years, but something that I went through nonetheless that has touched my life ever since.

But the last one, "Voices" is my favorite, as that one rings the closest to my own heart.



Those words, along with the rest of them, are more close to the thoughts in my own mind than you know, or I can say. Really.

But not only because I can relate to them, your songs are just wonderful. The flow is amazingly well-done, which is especially hard to show others when writing lyrics because the music isn't being heard at the same time. A lot of times lyrics themselves look like badly-written poems when the music doesn't accompany it, but these haven't sacrificed flow for anything - and I would really love to hear the music to it as well. Hehe.

Seriously, I could talk about this all day but I'll spare ya. But I would like to see more in the future.

*goes in search to see if you have a poetry thread*

Thank you so much. The one I relate to most is Cupcake right now. It's all about not being able to be perfect, beautiful, and capable of pleasing the ones in your world that demand it all the time. It's pretty much the story of my life atm.
