Why can't I write anything more than 6 lines?

It all seems so distant now
Like a blur, a haze, a dream
And I wish it was, i do... for now

The haze still burns my eyes
The reasons still unclear
Permanent damage

Shade

Never thought that I'd be one
To lose all faith, come undone
In dark corners, I saw light
Now close my eyes, fear of sight

I have always lived in sun
Though beams, my heart, had won
I dwell now in safety's shade
Live my life of shadows made

If I hadn't felt the warmth of the summer sun
I wouldn't be so cold
If I couldn't forget childhood's young,
I wouldn't feel so old

If in your opinion I’m not good enough, well that’s just fine
You believe in your wants and needs, and I’ll believe in mine
If you can’t take my flawed face, turn your head away
You enjoy your looking view; I’m not here to stay
If you touch me, I may melt, I am just that kind
You will bring me to my knees, and my state of mind
If you shed your tears for me because I bleed when you go
You shouldn’t bother, the cause is lost; the whole world seems to know

What I do, who I am, are those the same?
Who I am; what I do, who’s to blame?

I hope this scars

When she fell, she fell fast and hard
Skidding through nights, picking up shards

But summer nights never last til dawn
When the sun came up, a piece of her was gone

She lay there broken, unsure of what to do
Her heart was young and almost brand new

Mama picked her up, friends dusted her off
She stepped forward; the grass was soft

She turned with the world, but kept her eyes to the stars
Said under her breath, "I hope this scars."

Scars are true, honest and real,
Shows you've been hurt, but prooves you can heal

She misses that wound, open no seal
Sure, it was pain, but at least she could feel...

She could hide away, robbed of her prime
But she holds her head up, says, "I'll spend my time."
