Forgotten By Me Poem by Matt Burgett

I feel forgotten by no one but myself
The fault lies in me
And I think I'll go hang myself
Briskly from a tree

Along the way
Passing people left and right
No one would even notice me
Not even my fight for life

A dead Gothic tree it is
A perfect suiting for me
I throw the rope over a branch
As the pain comes on like an avalanche

My body twisting in a seizure
Shaking and wobbling
Everything now is fading
And my life has been nothing

My vision blacks out
And slowly I'm dying
The wind blows me back and forth
From this dead tree is were I swing
