Spinning, spinning,
going around,
one day my true love will come back to town.

Crawling, crawling
there is no doubt,
my time is running out.

Walking, walking,
fast not slow
I don't know where to go.

Running, running,
I am so naive,
your plane is just about to leave.

Falling, falling
sinking sand,
here he is just grab his hand.

Driving, driving
almost out of gas,
"I love you Ryan"
I am telling you at last.

LOVE NEEDS TO DIE

The very short lines and forced rhymes make it sound immature. Don't have time now but will try to get back later with better explanation.

I agree. Try to extend each stanza with more in-depth feeling.

"Buckle Up! It makes it harder for the aliens to suck you out of your car"
