Back Of Your Mind
April 30, 2012
Back of your mind.
Here I will hide.
Hate that I am here.
That you cannot see me.
I beg for attention.
You don’t hear my silent tears.
The pain on my face is unseen by you.
Can’t you see?
Yes it is me.
Look at me.
Can’t you see?
She takes up your mind.
But here I will hide.
In the back…
Back of your mind.

Well that's even worse :(
Are you the "she" that takes up his mind?

Lol thanks... What most people probably don't get from this poem is that it isn't about a boy/girl relationship... It is about a relationship with my dad... and his relationship with my little sister...

Ahh the fruits of jealousy/being second. Always unnerving.
I really enjoyed reading this poem. Everything came quick and short, as they should have since the speaker is not the main focus of the mind. This was really expertly done.
(sometimes the best poetry comes from babbling ;P)
