RE: The 1111 Writing Contest - What magic can you create with only 1111 characters?! - Week 3 - 'Change' [TOP PRIZE 3 STEEM + Runner up Prizes!! Winners from Week 2 Announced!]

in #contest7 years ago

I wake up in the same old bed, the same old sheets they cover my head.
I wake up in the same old house, the same old street, this neighborhood's dead.
And I think about the times we shared, and you were mine before I turned things bad.
Oh man! I loved you so, but I never understand just what I had.

So I brush my teeth, wash my face, walk downstairs.
Last nights drink, still swishing round my head, feels like my brain's being attacked by bears.
Once again you creep into my thoughts, I still can't believe how I let you go.
You were the sunshine in my day, it seems you were the muse to my creative flow.

I really don't know how I can go on, everything that happens now just feels so wrong.
It was my fault, oh this I can confess, but you leaving causes me emotional stress.
If you came back, would I be the same? I was too busy for you and now I feel the shame.
Would I worship you like you deserve? the answers that I find in me, they start to unnerve.

I think I've learned some things about myself.
I only ever thought about myself.
11:11 says the clock...I feel so strange.
Feels like the time that I need to change!

Thank God for character counting tools!

Sorry I left it late this week, I had no clue the deadline was so close and my life has been crazy

1111 on the button of course haha :)

This is a little less traditional than last weeks entry and needs to be read with a little flow, I felt it was more like a song (which, maybe gives me an idea...LoL)

SUPER MASSIVE GOOD LUCK TO ALL ENTRANTS :D

Amazing work brother... Really love this piece.

Know that everything happens for a reason. Don't look back or you won't be able to see your way forward.

I agree.. it's time for a change!

11:11 says so ;)

Amazing work as usual bud!

With Love

Wow, @stevenwood you are nailing it again! It sounds quite sad, but it makes sense!

Thankyou so much...

You are a great addition to this group, like a smiley, happy, encouraging breath of fresh air!

REALLY happy to have you here :)

Maybe @eaglespirit is right, maybe youare an angel :)

Oh snaps, people really do lurk 😝🤣😝

LOL!

Ever-lurking, ever-present.

The problem I have is that when I start talking and commenting...I cannot shut up haha :)

I have commented on almost nothing here this week (crazy busy) and simply knew I had to spend some time commenting on people work for this week change

Hahahaha thank you @stevenwood for the warm welcome!

@eaglespirit has been very kind to call me an angel. Hopefully, you don't see the other side of me :P

Haha! We all have many sides so it is all good :)

OH wow! LOL "the other side! Hee hee
I couldn't upvote your poem for some reason it just kept clocking wahhh

It also happens to me for some posts and they went clocking for super long, what a bummer! Maybe there isn't something too right with Steemit since it was also down early yesterday.
