I'm pretty much a lie,
A non entity,
Who has had little bearing on your life,
Your choices, your emotional choices,
The ones that you've loved,
They always seem to have a greater influence than the ones that have loved you,
Myself included,
You remain oblivious to my greatness,
Well, oblivious to my mediocrity,
Ignorant of what I have to offer,
I'm pretty much a lie,
A shadow or ghost,
Not so much haunting your every step,
But merely a constant footnote,
A name not worth saying anymore,
A name forgot,
Syllables lost in translation...........
I've often wondered would anyone miss me if I ceased to exist,
Would anyone shed a tear?
Would the world stop for a moment to respect my involvement in your life?
As it stands though I'm too busy writing a eulogy for myself before I've even had a chance to live,
Maybe I don't want to.................................
