Vanishing Into Nothing

A Poem About How I Feel

38
Vanishing Into Nothing

I used to think that poems were lame, until I figured out that they can explain so much in the world. Like your feelings toward something, a different place in the world, and even tell a story. Many people I know are like me, but just give this poem a chance to explain my feelings toward something. I know it’s not normal for me to write things like this, but just give it a chance to express how I feel…

You look in the mirror,

Not knowing what to feel,

You look down at yourself,

Not knowing what you did,

You look back at yourself,

With a dazed look on your face,

You smile, feeling satisfied,

Knowing how it feels,

You feel the warm dripping down your hand,

Feeling your life run out,

You think of everything that you did wrong,

Knowing you did the right thing,

You wonder how long you have,

Just to think about the life you lived,

You see a picture of your sister,

And feel sad on the inside,

You start to cry,

Knowing she will be devastated,

You look back at yourself,

Disgusted in everything you did,

You feel the warm running out of your body,

Satisfying the empty feeling that has been inside for so long,

You collapse,

The shiny thing that did this landing next to you,

You smile,

Seeing the culprit caught makes you seem not guilty,

Your life slowly seeping into the floor,

Knowing this is the end,

Your eyes shut,

the world fades away,

You feel so relieved of everything,

And everything is... gone.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
