Poem - God

“I’m happy,” he said

His dazzling smile appears

Who is he going to remember?

His family that he loves so much

Without realizing he leaves out the important One

“There were some obstacles, but I got through it,” he said

His eyebrows form a frown

Who is he going to remember?

The friends and relatives who used to help him

Without realizing he leaves out the important One

“I give up,” he said

Tears brimming at the corner of his eyes

Who is he going to remember?

The sharp knife and the strong rope

Without realizing he leaves out the important One

The important One, on the other side

When he’s happy, He’s happy with him

When he’s trying, He encourages him,

And says, “something great is in store for you!”

When he gives up, He reminds him

“You still have me, remember?”

Humans

The definition of imperfection

The creatures who pay no heed

Begging for happiness all the time, forgetting whom they begged to

Thus we shall remember

Someone is watching us always

Ready to give happiness after you’ve finished the obstacles

----------------------------------------

This was the first poem I've ever showed to my English teacher and my dad. I was inspired by so many people who decided to end their lives by doing suicides even though some of them could've done something and switched their lanes from the dark ones to the bright ones.

The story in this poem is about a man who got through some obstacles in his life until it felt like it was his limit, but then, he kept forgetting about the God who has been giving him lots of things in his life, until he decided to kill himself.

I personally don't think this is a really good one, even though I think it's pretty good for a first-time.

What I did to this poem was that I used the same 'forms' in order to write the first three stanzas.

e.g.:

“I’m happy,” he said

His dazzling smile appears

Who is he going to remember?

His family that he loves so much

Without realizing he leaves out the important One

“There were some obstacles, but I got through it,” he said

His eyebrows form a frown

Who is he going to remember?

The friends and relatives who used to help him

Without realizing he leaves out the important One

As it's shown above, the first line would be 'his' feelings or conditions in life. The second line would be 'his' facial expressions, and then the question of "who is he going to remember?" The next line would be the answer to the question, and the first three stanzas were ended with the same sentence or line, which was 'Without realizing he leaves out the important One'.
