It starts softly
With a melody
That sinks in
It accelerates
It takes form
It feels
It thinks
It Loves
It Hates
It Cares
It Manipulates
It becomes finished
It becomes you
Then you don’t like it
and start over
Again

The author's comments:
This poem is about me trying to write a song and every time I wrote one, I didn't like it after I was finished. Then I would start over.
