My Chemical Romance
March 24, 2013
I wasn't told.
I had no clue.
I wasn't even aware of you
My tears were shed
But now they're done
Because you touched almost everyone
I wasn't sure what to say
No one felt like I did
It was my saddest day
Yet only hours after crying
Feeling depressed, lonely, dying
Did I remember what you stood for
Hope, dreams, flying
You picked me up
You kept my going, always trying
You may be gone
But others say
That you'll be back again some day
So I won't worry
I'll just wait
For my hope to be replaced.

I LOVE MCR! Such an amazing band ^_^ I love the optimism towards the end. My suggestion for growth in writing would be to go back and search for any vague/general lines and make them more specific. For example, "No one felt like I did" is pretty generic. However, I like how you later went back and described those feelings that no one else could possibly have felt. :D Have a great day!
