If tomorrow were my last day.
what would you tell me today?
Would you tell me you weren't lying,
When you said you loved me, all those times?
Or would you tell me it was all lies.
Your soft kisses, you gentle hugs.
Are you a lie?
If I died tomorrow, would you regret all our fights?
Would you even care?
Or would you think it was just another suicide?
That it didn't matter.
What would you do?
If I came back to you in a dream.
And said it was your fault.
You drove me to it.
What would you do then?
Feel guilty?
Or just shrug it off, like you have so many times before.
Are you a lie?
Or am I just scaring myself?
If I died tomorrow, would you tell me today?

I like this concept. Is this your free verse poem? If it is be sure to include 2 literary devices.
ReplyDeleteAnd the only thing I could suggest would be to change your punctuation because you ask a lot of questions. Unless that was the point? :S
Another great poem, it's obvious you have a way of words. My suggestion is possibly find another word for lie in your last line of your first stanza as the repetition of lying/lies is awk/difficult to read. other than oncer again, great work
