If I vanished...

ModernPoemLover

If i were here, or if i were there,  

Nobody I know would even care.

If somehow I got lost amongst the trees,

I doubt a single soul would look for me.

Other lost soul's offer their sympathy,

but deep down i know they don't care about me.

I'm always there to make people laugh,

but if I vanished no one would shed a glance.

They say I always brighten up their day,

but if I know that if I went missing they would look the other way.

I am told that I am sweet, pure and kind,

but they'll never know how closed off I am inside.

So I read and I travel to places no one else can see,

because in my heart I know its just me, myself and me.

  • Comment from author about the poem: Hello, I often write sad poems to get it out of my system and make me feel better, so that is why you many notice allot of my poems are depressing. This poem is about always feeling alone, like that if one day you vanished no one would care. Of course this isn't true but sometimes it can feel all too real, let me know if you liked it or if i have any spelling errors :)

    Hi ..
    Seems nice and a genuine reflection of your mood at that gray moment.. I know you are sure many many poeple care about you ..but writing is addiction. ☺
    Keep on..!

    Maybe no one does much...and that's alright too ...who wants to be noticed by a bunch of self serving narcissists anyway? In your teens? I wouldn't want to be back there. Was one of the most disturbing, upsetting times of my life. And believe me it will change both for yourself and others. Right now you have to survive, make a few right decisions and wait.

      Yeah I understand, I do have friends but sometimes it nice to be alone. Being in my teens is hard but then again so is life, its a constant struggle so I have learned to take it one step at a time. Im happy you enjoyed it!
