Fountain Pens

This is my 4th poem, assuming I am counting correctly, for NaPoWriMo2015. This is actually the work of multiple days, so I am half-tempted to count this as multiple poems because it's so much longer than what I normally write, but that seems like cheating.
I'm not sure if I'm totally happy with this. I wrote it with the intention of it being lyrics (I basically recorded myself free-singing, and then organized it into more cohesive lyrics.) The only problem with lyric writing vs. poetry writing for me is that for some reason, when I try to write lyrics, it's like my brain just goes back to middle school, and I have no word skills because I'm too focused on having relatively regular meter and rhyme, and a melody that sounds okayish. And then I'm left with meh lyrics, meh music, and meh feels. Meh. Lyric writing always reminds me of how much I love free verse, which in my opinion, is so much more organic. I'll probably go back and edit it later. The only part of it that I'm REALLY happy with is the second half or so of the first stanza. I did vary a little from the current lyric formula though (Verse 1, Chorus, Verse 2, Chorus, Bridge, Chorus, Chorus). I ended up with something like Verse A, Chorus, Verse B1, Chorus, Verse B2, Chorus. WHATEVER. Maybe someday I can get this workable enough to actually record. Or something. I don't know. Things.
