Blind Voice

The feeling that you do good, but they still ignore you.

I want to be heard,

but I'm unknown,

I seek attention,

yet fame's not my presence,

I pleased people,

Trying to be an angel,

Doing no such rude,

yet still,

I'm incognito, a generic

A shadow behind them,

Thinking as nothing.

Whatever how much golds I gave,

they see no value,

leaving and ignoring it.

I'm tired to be good,

I'll back off.

Aim to change,

Going to something better.

Really good work you've done, beautifully written. I like how the first section sets up what the character want and wish for as well as what's keeping them from it. Clear contrast :)

Only thing that sounded a bit odd to me, in the last section:' I'll backing off'. Do you mean 'I'll back off', or 'I'm backing off'?
Either way I like the attitude in the ending :)

I felt that the poem kinda related to a bit of my own feelings myself and I love the rhythm in it!

I felt this way a lot myself to be honest. I had to get away from trying to be known, trying to reach fame or fortune, and just do whatever I'm doing because I love it and it's fulfilling my life. Actually a good poem, thanks for sharing!

Just 'knowing' that you do good should be reward enough - I don't think there's anything 'better'.
A real wrestle of conscience here - well penned.
