You're gone

Some people will never leave.......

you're gone 

you're gone 

I know you're gone 

I scrubbed every bit of you 

I swear I did 

then I hear a song 

so I start scrubbing again

I scrubbed my heart 

to remove any trace 

I scrub my eyes 

to forget your face

you're gone 

you're gone 

I know you're gone

Great poem Dave, I love it. I agree it would make great song lyrics. Hard to believe you weren’t writing about a specific person in your life. It has such an authentic ring of anger and sorrow.

[Dave W.]

Not anyone right now, but someone from my past, I just drew on feeling from the past.

[poetgurl]

This would make some cool lyrics. Very nicely written and expressed

[Dave W.]

Thank you, I wasn't even thinking of it as a song,but I can see what you are saying

[emmajoygreen]

Not at all sure who you're writing about, it reads cruel to either that other person or yourself. For that reason, you have shown the power of your writing. But tis sad, Dave..

[Dave W.]

Thank you Emma, this was not really about anyone, just had a dry spell and felt like I couldn't write about anything, so I picked a sad topic. Just a poem.

That's good; was worried but happy you're okay! In that case, keep smiling as much as you can!

[Dave W.]

Thankyou Emma, you're wholesome
