The List

I put on paper the pros and cons
Who does me right who does me wrong
Words slowly form a saddened list
The song playing tells of this
All that is wrong comes in to light 
I start to cry as i continue to write
Looking for hope to turn it all around
But more cons is what i found
No words can i say 
To bring a spark from yesterday
The sound of the clock passing time
Brings more words to form a line
Looking here looking there 
Only words is what i share
Now words in an envelope
Waiting for that day of hope
