I don't know how to make this sound beautiful and poetic
I don't know how to do metaphors and talk about the ocean but really I'm talking about a fear of abandonment and being forgotten
I've tried to write this five times,
each more stupid than the last
How do I talk about people moving on with their life and leaving me behind without sounding clingy and pathetic?
I think we're all ghosts,
trapped here forever,
trying to connect and live,
completely unaware that we're already dead
is that a beautiful metaphor?
I don't know.
are you going to leave and forget about me like everyone else?
are you going to stay and forget about me?
leaving me on the outside like I never existed in the first place
are you just here to be a bittersweet story?
if you leave,
at least say why,
don't leave me with unanswered questions like everyone else
but most of all,
don't forget me.
