I Will Be

I will be whisper thin
I will be a light they don't see shining
Far off into the forest
I will be so small they won't see me leave
So slight they don't hear me cry
And so weak they don't see me struggle

I will be whisper thin
So lost in this world of sin
You won't see
The way I bleed
Thru my sheets
I nurse my wing
I use my strength so I can sing
Of struggles thru my time that I bring

I will be whisper thin
Please now take all this in
You asked then
I act now
Now you see
What your words meant to me

My favorite is "so weak they won't see me struggle." I like this poem, you should take credit for your work, it's really good. :)
