Why are you here? And dreams not met.
Why Are You Here?

Why are you here?
Why do you care?
You never did anything but fuss and swear.

The dreams I once lost.
I finally found.
The darkness, my friend.

Has left me unbound...






An Empty Dream

My life is but an empty dream.
They say you can be anyone.
Do anything.
But how can I be somebody,
If I was born to be a nobody?
I have no rights.
My life is insignificant to those who have importance.
Those who have a purpose and are born with meaning.

But I wasn't born "to be".
I was born to serve.
My point in life is to be an extra.
Like those in movies who serve as the "crowd".
The innocent bystanders.
But I'm not innocent.
I've killed.

Does that scare you?
It should.
A killer is not to be trusted.
That's what they say right?
I should have been locked up.
Put away.
But I got away.
They forgot me.

I won.
Right?
Didn't I?
No.
Of course not.
A nobody can't win.
A nobody is a nobody and forever a nobody.
