Just Another Face in the Crowd

By fenix2337

"like words never to grace the pages of any book
i am merely fullfilling a purpose of existance."

i live and i breath
i speak and i think
i die and i bleed
i eat and i drink

i am here
but i am nowhere
my name is known
but i am not

i long for love
i feel so much hate
i wish to be held
i wish to be by myself

i wish to be something more
but i dont wish to be anything else
i'd give everything away
just to have something for myself

i give everything my all
my failures are known
but my success is not
i dust myself off after i fall
i start off strong
but its never enough
who am i?
