Meter and Rhyme

Why can't I find
a meter to match me
Im on the blind side
of my writing
human words
can only say
what they have heard
what have I heard anyway

what is the meter and rhyme
where has the time
gone
I cant find the way
to say what I say
in a a better way
so bear with me please
Im under the trees
looking at the sky
and I cant say why
but words escape me this time

I try too hard to write things down
maybe thats why I can feel down and out
they say write this way
make it better by saying
things that you dont mean
but it makes me want to scream
and I run away
I know is raw way
But it feels like who I am
I have jagged edges
I creep along ledges
always calculating how far I must fall
here comes the autumn fall

what is the meter and rhyme
where has the time
gone
I cant find the way
to say what I say
in a a better way
so bear with me please
Im under the trees
looking at the sky
and I cant say why
but words escape me this time
