It's Real

By Shane

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Don’t you dare cry for me Because I’m already dead Stuttering I’m a mess I’m something that’s best left Sunshine comes and it goes It can’t clear away the pain Withering in my sleep It’s my dreams I pray to be As I see my reflection die I lose the will to try When I’m black You’ll forget Everything that you held back And I’ll be lost again Don’t forget, once I’m gone They’ll chose someone else To condemn with pain Once I’m gone, I’ll feel the same Please awake me when I’m gone And you’ll feel my suicide Forget about myself, I know That you already have So take your steps To feel so good See my regrets When I’m gone for good Written March 28th, 2002 © on Mar 27 2002 11:54 PM PST   10 • 0
