And To Be Forgotten Poem by Melanie Emikohe

And To Be Forgotten

Rating: 5.0


I want to slither,
scrape my space
under the earth.

And to be forgotten.

The public is a podium
looking at me -
gossips everywhere;
those eyes are daggers.


It was shameful.

to be scrutinized under the lime light. Oh, but one has to command the scene. Otherwise, you're nobody. and i guarantee you looked beautiful doing it. xxsjg
