Don’t you think I’m gone and dead,
I’m watching you every moment instead:
How you dress, what you eat,
Where you go, whom you meet,
I see you adapting to new ways
Putting behind you the good old days
I know you’re always trying to forget
The memory of me, which you’ll regret
Without me, you’re sure to suffer pain:
There is much to lose and little to gain,
Of the dangers ahead, I ain’t unaware
And I ain’t the one who’d cease to care
A lot between us is yet unsaid;
Don’t you pretend I’m gone and dead
For you didn’t strangle me, or stab with a knife:
I’m searching for a way to reenter your life
I am no lover or friend or foe
But I am your Conscience, this you’d know:
I will return, and eventually win,
And resume my work to save you from sin

Ammar! How clever! Wow! This is really one of the best pieces I've come across in a long time. How provocative. The conscience taunting him, as it were. "Don't you think I'm gone and dead." Beautiful line! "Without me, you're sure to suffer pain." My God, that line is haunting, Ammar! "Don't you pretend I'm gone and dead." You are a poet/philosopher! And brilliant as both! I really want to read more of your "stuff!" |

Very creative! Love how I thought one thing at the begining of this read, and then some thing else entirely by the end. Good work!
