Do you ever get the urge to scream from the rooftops
"I'm here"
That your presence actually matters
That you contribute to something
To be remembered for something
No matter what it is
Good
Or
Bad
To show that your existence has a meeting
That you're here for a purpose
That being here alive at this moment in time is a good thing
Do you ever want to just say
" notice me"
I have something to give
A reason to live
Look at all these things I can do
Look at my ideas
Look at the things that I have accomplished
"Look at me"
...
"Be proud of me... I did it"
Do you ever want someone to notice what you have to give
I can do these things
I know how to fix this
I have experience with this
"I can help"
Please don't look the other way
Just listen to me
"I'm here"
it feel like as more time that goes on the less I am seen
It feels like I have just faded into the background
A piece that has been overlooked by a newer model
The person I am is no longer a piece of art
But the small sliver of shear plastic that was encasing it that was through away
The piece that seemingly has no value
Why does it feel like I am no longer seen
Why is it that when I speak I am no longer heard
I may be seen but not noticed
Why does it feel like
" I am not here anymore "
That my existence has been thrown in the trash
I am no longer good enough for you to recycle
I am no longer wanted
I am just taking up space
Why does no one notice that
"I'm here"
