Non-Existent

Poem^.^

I am

Non-Existent 

Invisible

And unseen 

But no one really knows me.

I am

Strong

Brave 

And Persistent 

But no one believes me.

I am

Trying

Trying so hard

And breaking in the process

But no one ever sees that.

I am

Me

Nothing I can do about it

And nothing I can change

But I don't ever give up.

Sorry I haven't been on for a while, but I think I needed a break because I love this poem surprisingly...

I like the way you kept the structure persistent through the poem.
It seems that it begins out negative, but then you turn it around to a positive outlook at the end, and that never goes wrong.
Well done.

It is one of your better ones, for sure. I have certainly felt similarly myself.

[Fire Mage Andrea]

The negative attitude of this turns to a positive attitude at the end. You or the character you portray show that you have a fighting spirit - "But I don't ever give up".

I like the hope and the energy of the poem. I agree with the ending. We can't give up. No weakness in the amazing poetry.

I love this poem too! A lot of people struggle with the need to always please people, which keeps us from being the unique person we were created to be. You wrote this one well and I'm impressed. :)

This means so much to me! Thank you!

I really like this poem, simply because it's something that everyone "struggles" with everyday, ya know? Like, we're always trying to impress or prove ourselves to people, mostly because they don't believe that we have potential.
