I'm nobody;
even to myself.

The overwhelming desire
to be someone
has led me down a path
of incredible nothingness.

Frozen in existence
as time stops for no man,
I become lost in thoughts
of the possibilities.

I rely on passionate thoughts
I've forgotten by tomorrow.

In groups I'm overshadowed,
squelched by alphas.

One-on-one interactions
are quieted by my own
inadequacies.

So far down the path I've gone
I'm lost
as I left nothing for me
to find my way back.

I am me.

I have no passion.

I have no drive.

I have no career.

I have no legacy.

I'm nobody.
