Gone

Gone-
Is the feeling of 
Love

Gone-
Is the feeling of 
Remorse

Gone-
Is the sense of
Responsibility.

This is the way we wish to 
Live.
Carefree!

Oh! How i wish to live as my peers!
Young. Hopeful. Unknowing-
That tomorrow it will be gone.

Seventeen, and feeling
Dead-
Within the soul, and through the mind.

Remember the adage, time is the greatest healer. We have one life to live and this is not a dress rehearsal like a drama. Live life as it comes to you, Ashley

My poetry is written without thought. These words flow through my fingers as if they are not my own. I look back at them and wonder why I wrote such things. I believe that all of my poems are my subconscious thoughts that are dying to be freed.
