Shadows...
I guess I really am nothing but a shadow...
I constantly sit and wait for something that may never come, and I believe in things that may not even be true... I don't know why, but I seem to be stuck.
I've grown tired. Tired of pretending that everything is alright. Tired of trying to look forward to the future, when I'm really just stuck in the past. I'm surrounded by shadows.
I guess I'm just fed up with keeping the REAL me trapped inside a bottle. I suppose the glass is about to break... I think I'M about to break...
I look around me, at the world I'm forced to live in, and see others who seem so happy. However, I can't help but think... What if it's just a mask? What if they're just like me? Trapped inside and trying to find a way out...
I just don't understand... I guess I'll never understand people...
I see people who are kind and gentle at heart, who would give up their lives for a loved one. Then... I see people who I hate... They constanly put down those who are different. They label others before even knowing them...
Heh. I guess my friends are right. I guess I really am a shadow. Because, I constanly watch others from a far. But, it really is amazing what you can find out about a someones character just by observing them for a few minutes...
I guess that's my only talent.
However, I can't help but look at myself in the mirror and wonder what people label me as.
A weirdo? The shy one?... A freak? Heh. I've heard them all. But, to most people, I'm just invisible.
I can't help thinking that maybe I'm just a ghost... A ghostly shadow that only a few can see... Yeah, that's it. A shadow. A shadow of the past...
One that's trapped in this bit of chaos, that's known as the present... Which will soon become exactly what I am now...
The past...
