Today the lamp glows dim
i need you the most
and you have forgotten my love
the smoke that engulfs my blood
slackens my mind
and leaves me weary of this form
of existence
Will you remember me when i'm gone?
today I'm friendless
void of thoughts, feelings
alone in the dark like never before
and you have forgotten my companionship
The darkness that burns my heart
has left me dead...
Will you remember me once i'm gone?
I live not for myself, but for you
and hence have you forgotten me?
Is this the truth of our friendship?
Why me?...
bereft of all love
a vagabond in the sands of time
tormented by the curse of reminiscence
perpetually undermined by the winds of change
I have been left un-left
You have forgotten me already
How will you remember me when i'm gone?
As time stands still
pain holds a new meaning
My brow slants under the weight of suffering
and you watch indifferently, unmoved
as I await my judgment day
more than ever before
WILL YOU REMEMBER ME WHEN I'M GONE?
remember my love?
my sacrifices?
my smiles?
my tears?
.....
hush....
.....
i know
It shall end just the way it started
till the end of time
I shall forever exist as the faithfully departed

beautiful
yet another masterpiece, the essence of me trickling throughout your words, beautiful, my dear. -
A deep piece, filled with sadness and a little confusion. I know how this feels and it truly does suck. Friendship.. can last a lifetime, however it is very rare for it to do so. I enjoyed the repitition, it fit very well.
"today I'm friendless
void of thoughts, feelings

I couldn't agree more. When you're all alone, you truly are all alone.
Thanks for entering and good luck.
