Figments

14 2 1
By BMHoor

We're all just figments of another human's mind.

We aim to please anyone but ourselves.

We stay still throughout our lives never moving forward, or behind.

We all just want to stand out amist a crowd

Some shine others sway with eager minds of a better beginning

Which never arrives.

Looks, brains or crazy transformations help us stick out.

The desperation to find something new never gives out.

I want to go and be loved

Be able to talk and know everyone.

Know all those secrets and lies.

Feed off that drama that never dies.

Our lives are taken for granted

One dies another arrives.

My life is just another figment.

I want to leave with a mark.

Some so desperate to leave their's,

Unnecessarily leave a scar instead.

But it's better to leave with something

Than nothing at all.

The flash of cameras across my skin.

The clink of glasses as I dine in.

The laughter of men.

The power of authority

As everyone stares at me before the show commences

A silent grant

When I nod my head.

No fear or insecurities

Flattered or tossed with compliments.

Lover's proposals.

No screams of negative thoughts.

It's just me.

All me.

I want everyone's love.

Or atleast with no care of any human's thoughts.
