End of Day 1 recap

It is officially the end of day 1 of NaNoWriMo for me. I didn't get as many words in as I had planned, but I'm still ahead for the day so I'll take it.

I thought I would share the song lyrics I came up with a few hours ago; as I mentioned in the previous post, I made the decision to have song lyrics throughout the novel because the main character is a singer/songwriter. I have never really written song lyrics before, so that was tough, plus the fact that I was coming up with them on the spot was pretty hard too! All in all, I'm happy with what I came up with. Something is something, right?

Please Don't Go

Apologizing was not enough

To repair the damage that I caused

Now I stand alone, watching you leave so slow

The pain of losing you so intense I can barely stand

Please don’t go I silently beg

Please, I beg and beg

Don’t go…don’t go

Seconds turn into minutes

Minutes turn into hours

The pain refusing to subside

The hope of your return refusing to die

I lay awake thinking of the things I should have said

Please don’t go I silently beg

Please, I beg and beg

Don’t go…don’t go

Losing my thoughts in a world of grey

Those are the words I meant to say

To keep you from walking out

To keep you from giving up

Please don’t go I silently beg

Please, I beg and beg

Don’t go…don’t go

Please don’t go
