Nothing

 

So

That’s the way

It is?

Fine.

Replace me

As if

I were some kind

Of ghost.

Forget me

As if I were

Another

Face in the

Crowd.

I suppose I am.

This proves it.

I’m nothing.

I never was

Anything.

I never will be

Something

Somebody

To

Somebody.

I fell for

The smoke

And

Mirrors

They were

So sweet

Pretty

Amazing

But that’s just

It.

Glad you can

Move on

While I

(Of course)

Wallow in some

Sort of

Self-pity.

What else would

I do?

I’m nothing

Remember?

Nothing is

What nothing does

(Isn’t that right

Forrest?)

I am a blip

In your

Life.

I’m a mess-up

A mistake

A silly

Mind slip

A nothing.

I’m so

F****n’

Happy

For you.

Truly.

Don’t worry.

Just go

Leave me

Wash me away

As if I were

Annoying dirt

Clinging to your

Skin.

It doesn’t matter.

I don’t matter.

Let’s leave it

That way

Because that’s obviously

Easiest

For you

(And that’s who

We’re thinking about

Right?)

Have fun.

Live life.

I’ll be here

Sitting

Waiting

Trying.
