When Im Gone

I'm not here,
Don't mind me,
I just the spirit
of what used to be.
I've come back,
though not for long,
to see how far
you all have come.
Laughs I hear and
smiles I see,
it's obvious,
you don't miss me.
Why should you?
There's no reason to!
I was never important,
at least not to you.
I tried so hard just to fit in,
But now I see,
that was my biggest sin.

That was pretty darn good The ryme scheme is excellent and the last couple of lines are quite true of many people who should just be themselves.

Hey sorrow,

I’ve never read any of your poems before but if they’re as good as this one you can be sure I will hunt them down and read them!

The only thing I thought was a little bit iffy on this poem was this part,

I just the spirit”

Shouldn’t the “I” be “I’m”? or on the line “I tried so hard just to fit in” I don’t think I would’ve put the “just”, I feel like the flow is better without it… I know, I know, it’s all little unimportant stuffs, but sometimes it’s the little stuff that counts

I loved the ending though, no! I loved the whole thing, it makes you wonder if the people you call “friends” would even think about you after you die…

Great job on this poem, it was awesome!

There are a few mis spellings in the poem stargal but I typed it out fairly quick. Thanks for telling me. Glad you liked it.

hells gate reads Abandon hope all ye that enter here

the road to hell is paved with good intentions.
Will you walk with me?
