Did you know?

• Artist: Esoteric_Eccentric
• Description: It's confusing to me, and I wrote it... It started as one thing then changed to another as I went along. I'd like to here what your impression of this is. What do you think it's about, do you see where/how it changed. What does this make you think about. That kind of stuff.
  
  It rambles on, but do you think it sounds generic? Is it unique, does it remind you of something else instead? That kind of stuff.
  
  Thanks.

Did you know?

Did you know that when I left, that still I stayed?
That the cupboards are full, yet there is nothing to eat.
Clothes in the closet, and still nothing to wear.
And shoes in the bottom, but my feet are bare.

Did you know?

Did you know that when I left, that still I stayed?
The bed in the corner, myself on the floor.
No knobs were locked, yet I could open no door.
The house so full, but no one was home.

You did know, didn’t you?

That I was really still there after I told I was leaving.
Up the stairs that I was never allowed down.
Left wanting for something that I didn’t know existed, only knew that I missed it.

I just meant to hide for a bit, not to go away like I had said.

Something happened, I know not what.

Now when I’m standing in front of you, you see me not.
Passing through me as if I'm not there.
Your ears don’t hear when my presence I try to insist.

I wasn’t here first, but I’ll be here last.
I said I was leaving, you’re the one that left.

Person after person, family after family.
There is food, and clothes, and shoes, and doors, and beds...

There are so many others, and I’m the one that doesn’t exist.
