Will You Remember Me?

Will you remember me? That one girl

Who always stood out in the crowd?

The one that was a bit too showy,

A bit too loud?

The one that would always blend in

Or always stand out?

Will you remember me? That one kid

You met in middle school?

The one who didn’t care

About her hair?

The girl that

Was so beautiful and yet hid behind the curtain?

Will you remember me? The fenominal girl

With the amazing voice?

Amazing writing?

Amazing acting?

Will you remember me? The athlete

That could run as fast as the wind?

Jump into the sky

So high

That I touch the stars?

Will you remember that girl?

The one nobody cared about?

The one who hid inside herself?

The one who was so afraid,

Afraid of what she could do?

Will you remember me as weird?

Talented?

Beautiful?

Smart?

Ugly?

Stupid?

Annoying?

An enemy?

A friend?

A person just like you?

Or maybe,

Just maybe,

Will you remember me as someone special?

I would like to be remembered

For something I did

That meant something.

Something good.

Something magical.

I don't want people to

feel sorry for what has happened to me

in their rememberence.

I dont wan them to remember the sorrow.

The pain.

I ask you,

Will you remember me? That poor girl

Who drifted from this world

Wondering if she would be remembered?

The tragedy is that often times the ones who will be remembered most are the ones who always feel left out, overlooked, and forgotten

Is there me in there somewhere? That is the question came to my mind after I read this poem. I loved reading it many time.

I truly feel for this poem. I can completely relate, and I love the title, because it says it all. I love the image you put into my mind, and a sad child love story plot. Just amazing :)

I am being honest, I think its wonderful! Also, I do understand, I know what you feel now, wondering how people remember you, I think of that also, and probably they will think me as a freak :D
Its a really beautiful piece of writing, and sure for one thing, this is amazing.

This is beautiful. It's solid proof that something doesn't have to be incredibly literary to be touching. Not that this isn't, it's just a different kind of picture. Truly lovely. And yes, I completely understand your point of view, even though I myself am a somewhat hidden person. You're a very talented poet.

[Rose]

Honestly... I love it. It reminds me of a poem my friend wrote.

OMG! I so understand. This goes through my head everyday now that I'm moving, I can't help but wonder. Very very good.
