I am the watcher the one who knows you the best.The silent one only in my heart do I scream notice me.You see me or you don't I am a ghost only appearing when my name is spoken,and disappear again.I watch everyone,making comments in my head or comforting some from far way.Am I a ghost for I fear I will disappear one day and no one will notice me.I don't crave attention like some do,acting dumb,being the class clown.I only want to talk,not be shy,to laugh out loud.It sounds easy but is not.Only through writing can I express the loneliness that is eating me away until a shell of my self is all left. Dull and lifeless.
