Nobody's Poem

How would you like it?

A mistake, something

That fills you deeply

With shame and despair.

Just hide it, hide it

I am nothing but

Your inner darkness

Your anger, your faults.

How would you like it?

No one looks at me,

Instead all they see

Is you, the hero.

I am merely a

Tool, to be used

And then thrown away

Is that what they say?

How would you like it?

I am betrayed by

Everyone I know

All lies, lack of trust

I'm going insane

This world is a fake

I have no real friends

All I feel is hate.

How would you like it?

I am chained to you,

I yank and struggle

But there you will stay.

I am not my own

Person. I complete

You, but no one cares.

It's all about you.

Always about you.

I am Nobody.

You are Somebody.

I do not matter.

Who cares who I am?
