Forlorn Visage Poem by Jake Harris

Forlorn Visage



How much am I truly worth
How much will I fetch?
Who would ever pay for me
An awful stinking wretch

For my body's worn
My beard untrimmed
My hands and feet a wreck

So I hum a tune
As I slowly tie
The noose around my neck.

I know that I will not be missed
Nobody really cares
If I would simply disappear
If I were just not there.

jAKE YOU HAVE VERY POIGNANTLY SKETCHED THE STATE OF MIND OF A PERSON WITH LOW SELF ESTEEM.BUT WE MUST HAVE FAITH IN OURSELVES. HOWEVER, I KNOW HOW IT FEELS. BUT YOU HAVE TO PULL YOURSELF OUT OF THIS ABYSS IF THE POEM IS ABOUT YOU.
