I am the One
I am the one whom you will always see, but never hear.
 I am the one slipping, silently, singing to myself in the corner.
 
 Slipping? Yes, I guess that would be accurate.
 I am the one that is full of talent
 
 
 
 
 Potential
 
 
 
 
 
 Soul
 
 But you won’t let me use it.
 You pull me down
 
 Slowly
 
 
 Secretly
 
 
 
 But none the less surely it is you that pulls me down
 I recognize you
 You’re in my line of vision when I walk
 You’re in my friends when I talk to them
 You’re in my head when I think
 You know no love, just money
 
 
 
 
 Greed
 
 
 
 
 
 Tragedy
 Thank you media, for hurting me
 
 It was only ‘til now I that I can recognize the mirror as beautiful. 
 
 
 
 And I don’t need you.
