Traveler's Requiem [Poetry]

Fading

Is this what it feels like to be fading,
To be disappearing,
Dying once in the eyes of those who know you,
No longer to mean anything at all?

Is it supposed to hurt like this,
Of should it be a simple clean break,
And what of the attachments,
Why do they hurt so much to lose?

Is my heart supposed to be torn like this,
What do I do to stop this feeling,
The bittersweet regret and mourn of the past,
As I come to turns with the horrible outlook of the future?
