Untitled V

I guess I thought I was trying to be included
I guess I thought I was being cute
I guess I was wrong...
I wonder...
am i who they thought i was?
is it just hurt spilling into these words?
will i ever have the opportunity to be in the background?
will i be thought of as the looming shadow...
natural interest...
stepping aside
looking blindly
hearing deafly
unassuming....indefinitely
