Attention

sometimes we just want to be remembered.

If you come to me,

I will whisper my secrets,

Loudly. Let them see

And make sure, the rumour ring

knows of every single thing.

Expose my supposed accidents;

dirty little secrets.

Look just how far I go,

to try and leave myself

In short term memories.

Just a nobody,

One of those shadows,

finding the right way

on the endless sea. 

Waiting for that one day

where I will be seen.

It is not like

I want attention,

just,

Want to be remembered.

Forever,

Or as long as it can be.

The wish to be remembered lovingly is natural and good. And your poem is superb in poetic imagery and muse. Kudos.

i like the thought depicted in the poem, the wanting to be remember is not for any selfish reasons but because we want to be remembered as a person who have lived a life... which ever it may be

[Tian]

Exactly :)
