Ghost
First posted poem. sorry it's kinda crappy.
To be ignored seems to be my purpose,
To pretend to be a ghost
Silence, no words no fuss.
Known only to the shadow world
People just walk on by
They pretend not to see,
But their eyes tell a lie
Knowing, just not caring
The clouds are closing in
They are all indoors
against the rain I shall never win
Just sit and watch as it takes my soul
Wind picks up and spits its shells
Skin peels away and reveals my demons
and my own inner burning hell
Will I ever escape?
Will they ever notice?
Will they ever utter words?
If I go will I be missed?
To be ignored seems to be my purpose,
To pretend to be a ghost
Silence, no words no fuss.
Known only to the shadow world
People just walk on by
They pretend not to see,
But their eyes tell a lie
Knowing, just not caring
The clouds are closing in
They are all indoors
against the rain I shall never win
Just sit and watch as it takes my soul
Wind picks up and spits its shells
Skin peels away and reveals my demons
and my own inner burning hell
Will I ever escape?
Will they ever notice?
Will they ever utter words?
If I go will I be missed?
