A Letter From An Unperson · 12:25pm Aug 10th, 2015
I am the forgotten poet. The destitute soul. The Crowning achievement of Damnation. An empty shell left in the dust to die. Am I destined to fall away and fade from sight? Is this good? Is this right? If it is then why do I feel so hallow and empty inside? Was there something I forgot, forever lost in time? Should I stay? should I fight?
I don't know what's right. Why must the answers always be hidden from my sight?
Should I stay? Should I fight? Thrash against the darkness with all my might? What is truth? What is right?
How do I live? Is this right? Or should I fall away and die? Should I stay? Should I fight?
What Am I? The Dying? The Dead? Am I the Damned? What am I?
Someone please tell me. Help me. Just a hand for this forgotten, abandoned, and damned?
No? I guess that was always the plan. For how could you care to save someone drowned, buried under ten feet of sand.
Should I Stay? Should I Fight? What Is Wrong? What Is Right?
Am I real? Can I Feel? Am I nothing? No?
Maybe... maybe I'm something more? Can you tell me?
What Am I? Should I Stay? Should I Fight? Am I Worth It? I'd like to think I am.
So what do you say?
Should I Stay? Should I Fight?
First things first, nice to see more of your work SUBJECT. I'm always happy to read more of your poems. I know I always say this, but I really enjoyed this one. It made me think of a soft rock ballad. I could hear the music for it in my head while I was reading it. I also liked the emotion I could feel that was behind this one. The self-doubt, but also the hopefulness and questioning of a situation. It felt very real, because I think everyone has felt like that before, so a lot of people could probably connect with this poem. One small nit-pick though. The first sentence "I am the forgot poet", did you mean "I am the forgotten poet".
As always I look forward to reading more of your work.
Your faithful follower,
