I was always happier
to be in the background,
I was always careful
never to make a sound.
I never wanted to be
noticed or singled out
I always made sure I wasn’t
the one who would shout.
I always felt
I was insignificant,
I always knew
I was far from omnipotent.
I never had any
self-belief or self-worth
I always ran away
in case I got hurt.
Now it’s too late
to change who I am
because no one could care less
or give a damn.

captivating poem and self emcouraging one. don’t expect anyone to understand you or be beside you when you want.
