Being of No Significance

I simply should disappear
Become a nonentity
Being of no significance
It mattered not to me

By becoming non-existent
Tossing myself aside
Being of less importance
Just think that I died

I shall maintain my silence
As I vanish from view
Being in a nowhere place
It had worked for you

I can forget forever existed
When I fall into oblivion
Being my final destination
I shall become no one

In the background I will fade
My shadowy silhouette
Being one cast in isolation
I shall be easy to forget

Oh, I beg to differ dear Hope.
Someone as radiant as yourself can never fade away. Nor be forgotten. Nope...not gonna happen. Sending smiling hugs your way. Chris

Poetry is an echo, asking a shadow to dance.

But words live on.....I don't think a poet ever really dies.

Someone who writes like that might not be easy to forget. Might just be un forgetable! Anyway I enjoyed your poem.

You say it ... it worked for him! Just so, but you know better.

Live Love ... and write, it makes you so highly SIGNIFICANT.

Love and hugs.

I know this feeling...having felt this way for so long.  I remember, but feel this way no more. You have so much to offer, Hope, so much beauty in your writing...

“Being one cast in isolation
I shall be easy to forget”

Sad.  And not true for you.
Your very name says it all: HOPE.  
We all, will live forever.

No one can forget what's unknown
They never had a chance to know it to forget
Only those who know you have that chance
and it shows they won't...
