Erica Gould Poet Free verse

Untitled

I'm barely hanging on myself,
But you're too busy to notice.
So wrapped up in your own lives,
I'm easliy forgotten.
I'm the one,
Juggling all our schedules
Just so we can hang out.
Playing messenger,
So we can all stay in touch.
I thought that I could do this,
But I'm barely hanging on myself.

Joe Flach January 6, 2012 at 11:18 AM Hang in there Erica!!! You can do this and more - if you put your mind to it - after all, if you can write such beautiful poetry, you can achieve anything. PS - I think 2nd line the "your" should be "you're". Erica Gould January 10, 2012 at 11:17 AM Thank you!! And you were right about the second line.
