Hey, this is another old one, please tell me what you think!!


I've slowly come to realize,
what with all my prayers unheeded,
that this vile world shall pass me by
that my presence is not needed.

If I tried to stand very still
and disconnect my mind from earth,
it would go on fine without me ~
which makes me question my self worth.

Does anyone really notice
my sanity is on the breaks,
I might take a step up though
If only to raise the stakes.

I can not do anything right.
I seem to always cause more pain.
Maybe I should just end it all
and begin all over again.

Would this gelid, foul world miss me,
would society even care,
would my absence go unobserved
would you notice I wasn't there?

I've slowly come to realize,
with all my prayers unheeded,
that this vile world shall pass me by
that my presence is not needed.

Ah, we meet again.  
You like critiques... well I've looked over this one and I see not really any profoundly important points to make.     When I read this through it seemed like a less rhythmic poem and more of a poem you read in your head.  I didn't find it needed any rhythm, so it all rhymes fine and I don't see much to expand upon.  
Excellent job!  I enjoyed it a great deal.

I enjoyed this a lot!  The flow was nice, and the theme was very well done.
Nicely done.

I really liked this one. Great job on it. I think everyone at some point in there life asks that question..."Why the heck am I even here?"
Keep 'em coming!!

Well hey i thought that the flow was great. I liked the poem a lot......now the topic....naaaaa..very negative feelings in here toward yourself. Didn't like that part....but i did like the poem. You did well.

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily
