I’m here,
Laughing with the people around me,
I’m here,
I’ve participated, where’s my trophy, I’m exactly what everyone else wants,
“Are you okay?” Am I? I’m waiting for your answer,
I can feel their desires, as easily as I see them, effort? Not much is needed to give them to you,
Blank,
Alone,
The silence, presents the emptiness behind the glass,
Am I here?
Only when someone else is, Sometimes the emptiness is nice, Sometimes the quiet is scary,
One way mirror,
I see you, do you see me?
I don’t,
Observer? Of course I know you, How else could I become your dreams,
Disappointment?
Failure,
I am not here, I am in your head, A short lived projection,

I've always loved writing. Using words creatively to paint images in your head, compels me to try my own hand at it. I only hope you can see the picture I'm trying to paint.
