One day... by Oliver DrewmanI hope to be nothing
To find my worries and fear
Reduced to naught
To finally realize
I don't really matter
(To much of anyone except my family)
I am a unique snowflake
Like everyone else
Created
Fall
Pile up
Then...
Slowly disappear
Snowflakes
We give no thought about
(They probably don't think about us either)
I want to live
Then drop down
Pile on insanity
(Because insanity is easy)
Then...
Slowly disappear

Posted by V. Blake on 02/01/10 at 06:01 AM I like the notion of having everything negative reduced to zero, but of course, everything positive would have to go with it. At any rate, I enjoyed your poem, but might I suggest changing "slowly disappear" to simply "melt" ? I'm not sure if this would change or subtract from your intentions, I just think it would help the flow. Either way, keep up the good work. :) |
