I watch you trying to swim, to float, to stay on top of things
And I stand at the edge, looking in
And I watch
And I see
And I know the inevitable
You can’t stay afloat forever,
Clinging on to the little life that you have left
And I realise, as I watch the ripples you create
The ripples that are your friends and family,
That I see myself in you
See my reflection.
And as the final breath escaped from you,
From me,
Fifteen thousand people screamed, realising their mistake.

This was good especially for a 12 yr.old. Its so true that we can't stay afloat forever. I dont know where the 15,000 ppl came in though. Keep on writing.

i liked it, but u shouldnt have gone into the family and friends bit. A poem shouldnt have to explain itself. |
