Prompt Four: If you wrote a song about your love life, what would the title be? Write the first verse.
“Try Again”
I go out
Red lipstick, favorite heels on
Looking for more than
just a good time
Want to go out dancing
Maybe see a movie
We can talk for hours
and let time pass us by
But once again
It’s all the same thing
He only wants that one thing
And I ain’t that easy
So he stops texting
And I want to give up
I call up my girlfriends
Who say he’s missed a
damn good thing
And we go out
Red lipstick
Favorite sneakers
And I try again
