Setting over west downtown,
I sit there smiling at the end of day
Watching young children trying to stay out and play
And nobody knows

When night is here and the sunset's done
And I walk wack home, see the children run
I giggle a little at the sight
Of watching them fight off saying good-night
And nobody knows

Back in my bedroom I turn on the light
Staying awake throughout the night
Counting the seconds left in the day
Counting the days until I fade away
And nobody knows

And as I count I think of life
Full of sorrow, grief, and strife
And I guess that's when I made my resolve
To keep secret the problem I cannot solve
And nobody knows

This is a problem I've had since birth
So I've always known what life's really worth
I guess that's what happens when no one knows why
When no one can tell me why I must die

And Nobody Knows

Topic: SadPoetry

As I sit and watch the sun go down,
Setting over west downtown,
I sit there smiling at the end of day
Watching young children trying to stay out and play
And nobody knows

When night is here and the sunset's done
And I walk wack home, see the children run
I giggle a little at the sight
Of watching them fight off saying good-night
And nobody knows

Back in my bedroom I turn on the light
Staying awake throughout the night
Counting the seconds left in the day
Counting the days until I fade away
And nobody knows

And as I count I think of life
Full of sorrow, grief, and strife
And I guess that's when I made my resolve
To keep secret the problem I cannot solve
And nobody knows

This is a problem I've had since birth
So I've always known what life's really worth
I guess that's what happens when no one knows why
When no one can tell me why I must die
Nobody Knows

We all try and figure why things, are like they are. Cant, really find the answer, tho. Good write.

While every care is taken to ensure the general sites content is family safe, our moderators cannot be in all places; all the time.

Parents also please ensure that you supervise your children well when they are on the internet; regardless of what a site says about being, or being considered, child-safe.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
