I Do Wonder

Eeva

I would never, ever, never,

Kill myself of sadness,

To die at my own bloody hands,

And to leave the world I know.

 

But sometimes I do wonder,

What everyone else would say,

If I left this world I know and love,

And leave without a trace.

 

Would they go on with life,

As if I wasn't there?

Or would they cry and mourn,

And wish I was still there?

 

Do these people really care and love?

Or is it just an act?

Because what I am enduring,

Seems like a false act.

 

Would they be glad I'm gone?

Or would they speak nothing of it?

Will they remember me always?

Or forget and leave me dying?

 

Which is why I do sometimes wonder,

What would happen if I were gone,

Would they be depressed and lonely?

Or would they be glad that I had gone?

    If you become a Mother, maybe you'd stop wondering...
    Your child would need you.
    My child needs me and keeps reminding that he needs me,and that gives me strength...
    Thank you for your poem.
    Everyone can relate to it.😃
