Would you

If I went away today

would you remember me tomorrow

if I asked you to say a prayer

would you bow your head

 

If I asked you to cry with me

would you shed a tear

if I gave you my heart

would you keep it safe

 

If I asked you to stay

would you stay

or leave me

standing there crying

 

would you care about me

even the slightest bit

or would you leave me

alone to die?

This is a really good poem.
It was intense and really beautiful.
And I could totally relate to this piece. Thank you. :)

I never bow my head when I pray. Why should I? Is God not my friend? Why shouldn't I look around at this beautiful world that He created? That is just something that has always bothered me about non-catholic churches.
How does one cry like that on command?
Interesting poem in theme and concept. I think you have voiced the feelings of most people within it, though it comes across as a little woe-is-me sounding. Would you return the favors? Is there anybody alive who will not die alone? Is that not the fate of being human?

Well I didn't ask for your two f****n cents. If you don't like it then you can get off my profile and leave your two cents out of it because I did not yank yo chain!!

Take your religion and can it. If this poem reminded you of being told you're wrong, then you clearly have unresolved issues. This poem is of course what a lot of people feel. If people want to bow their heads and close their eyes, so let them and don't be the people who tried to mold you into their own image duh!
Great poem Kym!
