I am

I am

The shadow in the back

Dark, mysterious and cold

The disappearing thought that 

Never crossed your mind

The small gust of wind

Brushing up against your cheeck 

Blowing away your delicate tresses

The old dust bunny 

In the corner

Underneath

The turmoil of the real world

Empy and untouched

I am 

The person in the back

You don't bother to remember

Who doesn't speak a word

Not a mumble or a single phrase

Someone so small

Tip of a needle

In a population of boulders

A vanishing ember

A dying flower

Decaying in the open under the fire of the suns UV rays

Withering away

Longing for attention

Attention that's never going to come

Slowly rotting from the center

Loveless, unrequited, hopeless

So much potential energy and love

Willing to give, but no one

Willing to recieve

Craving for just one touch

Just a strange individual

With brightly colored hair

Rottting in the back

But no one bothers to help, they only stare

Slowly disappearing into oblivion

No one will remeber

None will recall

All the love I've poured

The light I shared

Life I've breathed

Take but never give

Never thank

Acknowledge or welcome

But I forgive

Because you need me more

Than I could ever need you

A bunch of protons and electrons

Molding into atoms forming into molecules

Molecules into elements

And slowly becoming

The unique

Outstanding soul inside a human

Dear

I'm the laugh you hear 

While your alone

The voice you listen to

Deep in thought

The reflection that you spot

Stalking your every move

None the less

I

AM

YOU
