ForgottenA Poem by Sunshine Kid
I wonder
If I’m ever forgotten
(By you
Perhaps)
Will I just
Slip away?
Unnoticed?
Will I just
Disappear
Like your
Memory?
Will I fall into
A sleep I will
Never wake
Up from?
Or will I just
Go with the
Ghosts
Or
Spirits?
But that
Is something
Tangible.
Ghosts
Spirits
Sleep
All things
I can touch.
All things
You
Can
See.
I won’t
Be worth
Anything
When I’m
Lost
And gone
From
Your
Mind
But
(More importantly
Really)
From
Your
Heart.
Worth much even
Now?
No.
Never.
Not even
As you remember
Me
Or
Actually
Exactly how you
Remember me
Is much
Better than
What I am
(Lately).
If ever
You become
A fly on my
Wall
Never
Ever
Choose to be
A fly
When I’m
Alone.
Please.
Unbearable.
Unsuitable.
Laughing?
Smiling?
Giggling?
Hopping?
No.
Lifeless
As a leaf
In
Autumn.
Useless as
Sign language
To the
Blind.
Soft and
Limp.
Which is
The way
I would be
If you ever
Forgot
Me.
Have you?
