When I hear the news my heart is hollow
My eyes full of tears, my face full of sorrow
The world seems to be moving slower and slower by the moment
I know I could've done better; I just wish I would've shown it
Depressed and defeated, the world looks bleak
I wish I was back in my heyday; life at its peak
And all I wish for and want is another chance
But I know it is futile; I've danced my last dance

"You know you’re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is – wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you’re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself."

This one is my favorite! I love how you tied everything together and I actually imagine this being read like a spoken word! I don't know if that's how you planned it but thats how I pictured it. Nice job! :)
