Someone Who Never Knew Me

I will not break;

Into a thousand little shards,

Echoing as they fall to the floor,

Passed over with only disgust irritation,

To be swept up by the maid,

Someone who never knew me,

Who only had a job to do

And handle in whatever manor they please.

I will not fall;

To a broken death,

Whizzing through the air,

Looked at in awe,

To be swept away by the nurses and doctors,

Someone who never knew me,

Who only had a job to do,

And handle in whatever manor they please.

I will not suffer;

Of a bleeding death,

Crimson dropping lonely to the floor,

Looked at in pity,

To be swept away by the apartment attendant,

Someone who never knew me,

Who only had a job to do,

And handle in whatever manor they please.

I will not let you win;

Of breaking my heart,

As it falters under the stress,

Looked at in vengeance,

To be swept away by your love,

Someone who never knew me,

Who only had a job to do,

And handle in whatever manor they please.

It was good but the last verse for the poem should of been the oppsite of what was above, I will be with you, my heart will never be alone, it will never falter, always looked on with love, someone who knew me, with no job nothing to gain but still wanted me

Nice write though i LUV it

Whoa I love your perspective. I like the lyrical approach you did in this poem in order to emphasis your stand. I think this has brilliance and depth.

Keep Writing. ^___^

And isn't is in all of us to want to be known in some way, however far away? Loneliness can be so encompassing at times, this I know too well.

There is a melancholy rhythm to this which fits, and gives this essence.

Poem tell a powerful and strong story. I could feel the internal struggle and desire to fight. Poem is very good. I had to read a few times. Some poem have to be read more then once. A excellent poem.
