If You Were To Write A Poem About Me

Folder: 
A New Era

To those that love me... 

If you were to write a poem about me, 

Would you write about how good of friends we were?

The times that I was there for you, 

even when I was drowning?

Would you write about how you really feel about me? 


To those that like me... 

If you were to write a poem about me, 

would you write about how you wish I was yours too love and hold? 

Would you write talking about how you would never hurt me? 

Or maybe even the life we could have? 


To those that's ever hurt me... 

If  you were to write a poem about me, 

would you write about how you wish you would have treated me better? 

How it was a mistake that you cheated on me? 

Or went back to drugs? 

Or would you talk about how you shouldn't have belittled me

and make me feel worthless? 

Like I was nothing but scum of the earth? 

Would you write how you miss me, 

cuz you realize that what you had was something great? 

About how you had someone bending over backwards to try and make you happy,  though her soul was torn, 

cuz you kept hurting her, 

No matter how much she tried to keep you happy?  


To everyone... 

If you were to write a poem about me...

What would you write?

Great poetry asks a question...and by doing so, engages your audience..

this one asks several.

Bravo

That's just how this poem

That's just how this poem came out.  Actually turned out differently than I originally planned,  but I just write and let it go wherever it takes me.
