Do I really matter?
Are my thoughts alive?
If a piece of me dies tonight
Could the rest of me survive?

Do we feel the same way?
Do we love alike?
If I backed down tomorrow
Would you stand up and fight?

Do you understand me?
See the rhythm of my mind?
If you made me wait forever
I know I'd be left behind.

I'm just one lousy person,
One more fish that roams the sea,
A worthless piece of garbage,
That's how the world sees me.

So if you choose to leave me,
To roam the stars with love that's blind,
I'll be forever waiting
Back home with love that's kind.
I wrote this last night on my phone before I went to sleep. I don't do much poetry!

It may be difficult to find the real meaning in this. I get the feeling it will only be me who truly understands it all. But then, you take your own meaning from it, and that's good too.

Why see the world through my eyes, when you can see it through your own?

I put this under "Song" because it did feel like that while I was writing it, and I'm not sure where else to put it. It's not a song in the sense that songs generally have a chorus, though. Make of it what you will.
