Ok: just a little poem I wrote from Gatsby's point of view. NOTE: was written before the song Remember me from Journey came out. Anyways, read, don't, really don't care
Remember Me
The sun is gone, young man staring at the green light
He's been standing there since twilight
The light is his hope, his dream, so close, yet so far away
He's come this far, though it's a heavy price to pay
He holds the party in hopes of seeing his true love
He knows she was sent to him from heaven above
Still, he remembers when she told him they could never be
He sits and thinks… remember me
How they danced, holding everyone's attention
Still, her husband got suspicious though he never mentioned
The man didn't care, he was lost in her, letting everyone see
He stares into her eyes, wanting nothing more than to say… remember me
He felt the presence all day, felt someone lurking in the shadows
The angel of death, came so quick, stooping below even his level
He sees his whole life, flashes before his eyes, before he stops breathing
His final thought… remember me
He's looking down, seeing his own funeral, feeling their pain
For he's fallen, taken his final bow, now he's slain
Daisy… Daisy… Daisy… he knows she's not there, but he tries to get a final message across the sea
Remember me
