Why Don'T You See Me

Here I stand Out in front Bare for all to see I shed my skin Emptied my soul But you don’t see me The foolishness I left behind The years I lost, just wasted time You’ve taken all I have to give Requesting more so you can live And now my shell is all I have The rest gone down the drain My one and only life I had Has disappeared in vain Its over now My end is here Still shaded by your tree I gave my all for you to live And you never saw me

It is so hot here in Ohio the last few days and they say stay in if you can. Well I can and so I thought this would be a wonderful day to thank everyone for their kind comments on my poetry. So I say thank you to you for the kind words and for sharing your amazing poetry with us Kimberly. Love, Carol
