Zero things that I can do
Twenty poems I wrote for you
Fifty songs I can't stand anymore
A hundred memories I don't wanna store
A thousand ways you make me weak
A million tears that stroll down my cheek this is the only cliche and it's not a really bad one because you used stroll.
Make that twenty-one poems I wrote for you
But still zero things that I can do. not sure this line adds anything, as the previous line implies your wasting your time.
(I think "zero things that I can do" sounds awkward but I don't know how else to word it so that it fits into the number scheme... and I'm beginning to realize I have a problem with sounding cliche...)
good effort.
