    I DON'T EXIST
    Hey babe
    Could you tell me one more time
    Just how nonsignificant and unimportant
    my feelings are

    Stifle my creativity
    Push me back behind the door
    Take my voice so I can't be heard
    I don't care anymore

    Remove my identity
    Replace it with yours
    I have no thoughts of my own
    An empty shell for you to fill

    I don't exist

    Show many times I feel as if no one even knows I exist. You hit it right on the head.

    I THINK YOU CAPTURED THE ESSENCE OF WHAT IT FEELS LIKE TO NOT BE RECOGNIZED. I THINK WE HAVE MUCH IN COMMON. I WOULD HAVE LIKED IT IF YOU HAD EXPLORED AND TIED IN YOUR NONEXISTENCE TO YOUR IMAGERY A LITTLE BIT MORE AT THE END.

    If I had to look into this from a different side or view. I would have to say that the story speeks of a submissive giving himself fully to his Master or Mistress to control. Someone how feels no shame in allowing them to mold him. Nice.

    Poetry is not the expression of personality but an escape from personality.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
