I stood at the shadows
of people who made it
I watched as people praise
people adore
people flock over
people who made itWhile I—
a lonely star
in a field of nebulae
I watched as people pass by
people stay silent
people avoid coming
to people who are unknownAs they say
—eyes widen at
the prospect of triumph
people want glory
people are hungry
people demand I show
only good thingsI get it now—
why people won't see me
—why people won't love me
why people would look
the other way
as they pass by meI get it
I hate it
being alone is a stab
in the gut
to draw out blood
because—People want tales
of vengeance
people are craving
for warriors
who triumphs
—people don't have
time for unremarkable
people—which I amSo I stood and stayed
at the shadow of people
who made it
until I wither away
to something
people wouldn't want
ever
