Have You Been That Someone

Have you been that someone ?
who is only meant to be read in between the pages of someone else's book,
and meant to be only overlooked,
rather than a title proudly announced; 
with immense love from the crowd?
Have you been someone?
who is presented as a bouquet of flowers, 
meant to be caressed and loved,
but then discarded in few hours
Have you been that someone?
Don't be that someone!
Be your own book,
Your own flowers and your own moon.
Fluoresce with your own happiness, 
rather than a pleasure bought in haste.
