Who DARED Imply?

who told you i may have wanted to walk alongside you for a spell? who?

Go ahead,

Pass me by.

It's okay,

life is slipping by.

No it's fine,

I don't blame you.

Pass me by,

You have better things to do

I didn't want to walk along with you.

Who dared imply it?

You'd do better than me,

Who wouldn't see?

I saw that you hesitated, 

And that you still walked along.

Knowing there would be prettier people,

But the hesitation stung most.

Left bitterness hanging,

Forgotten, like a ghost.

So pass me by,

Really, I'm OKAY.

Please, pass me by,

We both know you have no desire to stay.

Call me crazy, but this sounds like it should be a song. Like:
'Pass me by,
I understand you have better people
to enjoy yourself with.'

Than a heavy slam on a guitar:

'I saw that you hesitated,
And that you still walked along.'

Nice base and drum line. Awesome job

[Sam Nona]

oh s**t. they pissed you off. and you wrote it so nicely. they would feel the sting if you showed them this poem...

[Catherine]

I feel the pain. onesided affections suck. nicely penned.

[Rob Santana]

what a great write! Forgotten like a ghost, Ireally like that line. Actually that person your talken about did a ghost on you right,hahaha

[A Jainam Mehta]

Amazing 100 %. it somehow resembles one relation of my life

[Neva Flores Smith - Cha..]

an excellent piece and one to hold your thoughts for awhile. No one wants to be with someone who doesn't want to be with them.....they see your hesitation and know they are second choice, they are not fooled.

I've been here too, I know how it feels :/ the presentation was awesome I love two liners like this, but remember, when you're going for the sharp dramatic affect such as here sometimes less is more as far as diction.

A very startling write. Yes, the content kept me reading. The movement of the piece was good... very good.
I've been on both ends of this problem.... sometimes life isn't fair. But you should really take the time to listen. Other point of views may surprise.
Keep writing.
