A question to the world

By Invisibledarkness

I close my eyes,
And in a dream,
I slowly ponder,
How it would be.
If I die tonight,
Would you care,
Would your eyes fill with tears?
Would the stars go dim,
Or shine even brighter.
For the loss of a child,
Overlooked yet always there,
Always visible yet never seen.
Tormented by the thoughts of the world,
As it falls into its dark abyss.
As the fabric of life unravels,
And I suffer alone.
Would you care,
If I was gone...
Never to be seen again.
This question i ask you.

Yours Truly,
Invisibledarkness

    so many people overlook thier children or others who are there. when they are no longer, those same people wonder where time went. well written and definately makes one ponder

  • A former member wrote: A nice poem! I like your writing style. it portraits how small one little life is in the style of "why would anyone care about one extra stupid kid dying?". beautiful!
