this is the first poem ive ever written on my own w/o a teacher or someone telling me i had to so it basically comes from what i was feeling.

Fade

You can see my existence but I’m not really here
Trapped in your own world I just remain near
I found that you use me only to abuse
Keeping it simple is your only excuse
Getting so near to thinking you care
I just find that I fall back into this despair
Always finding I’m just a toy
Getting your amusement so you can enjoy
My pain as we know it will never end
All it will do is constantly extend

Knowing I am just your little puppet
I become worthless and weird
Trying to find the victory of this pain
I go alone to examine this hostile chain
Endless steps that will never leave
Giving myself to you as you please

You keep working me as if I’m not real
I’m trapped in this silence; it’s all I can feel
Going away still on my own
You’ve tamed me good; it’s so easily shown

I am nothing; just fading away

What a wonderful first post.
This is an amazing poem,but so sad. I know its hard but don't lose yourself.
I hope to hear more from you

*for someone who's used to heartache,losing it all was just a matter of time*
Be kind,for everyone you meet is fighting a harder battle

Welcome To Passions!!

This poem is great for a first post, much less a first real poem (outside school)! I can relate, I think we all go through that from time to time; those who don't should count themselves lucky. Hope to see more work from ya!
