Gone
What would you do
If one day
I wasn't there
If I was gone
Would you ignore it
Ask where I was
Wonder why I wasn't’ there
Or get angry with me
Would you reach out to me
Or think to see me the next day
What if someone told you I was hurt
Would you rush to my side
And help me
I would like to think you would
But this pain is unstoppable
So
What if
One day
I died
It doesn’t matter how
Or why
Would you think it does
Or no
How would you react
Would you live your life
As though nothing happened
Ok
Hurt
Sad
Angry
And with whom
Yourself or would you be angry with me
Think it was a selfish thing to do
But you are the one being selfish
Because you are jumping to conclusions
And you will never possibly understand the whole truth
Would you end your life
So you wouldn't have to live without me
I would hope not
Is it possible
That you could live how I would wish for you
In the good times
With me still by your side
And happy memories
Cherishing our time
Because I can’t take this anymore
I have a black hole in my soul
Every second getting bigger and bigger
I don't know what to do
I can't take it anymore
I'm gonna run
Sometimes all I need is silence
It’s all I ask
I’m slowly drifting to the black hole
Once i’m encased I won't come back the saem
I’m slowing dying inch by inch
Saving me won't be enough
I'm broken
After I'm gone
If I die
know I was smiling
In my last seconds
I was happy
Thinking of you
Don't be sad
Remember all that made me smile
And be happy too
When I cease to exist
Think of me and laugh at all the things we did together
When I'm gone
Just stand still
And picture me
I'll be there with you
Always
You can't get rid of me that easily
Just set me free
And don't follow me
I choose my fate
Knowing I was happy
When my clock finally
Came to an end
Everyday was a step closer
To my point of no return
I was trapped on the inside
This was my only escape
Remember
I regret only
The things I left unsaid
But I will live forever
Through the memories
I left behind

- Comment from author about the poem: Half my own and half of my friends writing, I put it together. Gone is about living in the moment and not being upset when your time runs out.

Great write
Thank you! Yes, that is definitely what I had in mind while writing "gone." We need to be kind and see that we never know what goes on behind closed doors.
