Sometimes I forget that I’m part of this phenomenon you call life...
I know. I’m here...with you...
But at times, I tend to watch you as if I’m not
Like my reality is outside of yours, yet attached to it
Somewhat as a ghost...once being like you, now just observing you
Knowing what its like to be you & think the things you do
But not caring about those things for myself...just witnessing all the ways you happen to
A space in time when I chose not to exist in my own world...but remove myself from the world altogether
How does the world look when I’m not in it??
It looks like you
So I study you...maybe in ways I shouldn’t
Ways you may deem invasive
What gives me the right??
Maybe when I’m outside of the world, I’m above it
And feeling above anything answers the call to judgment
I don’t try to...I just am
I am...not here
Not for me at least
I am here for you
I am here because of you
You have become my world...
You & everything you do
Though I never get to see it all
You always remind me that I do, in fact, exist
Here, among you
This world I enter, I only encounter in moments
Until you drag me back into the responsibility of existing
I walk with you & sit in your midst
Gazing...listening...loathing...admiring...
...snapping, back to my own reality
The one where you don’t appear the same way
In my world, you are secondary
In my world, I am the center
Is that how it should feel??
That’s how you feel...when I’m in your world
I can tell...you don’t even notice me when I’m there
Maybe that’s why its so comforting
In my world, I have to exist
But somethimes I don’t want to
I don’t want my life to end...
But sometimes I don’t want it to matter to you
Or for it to be intertwined with yours
Sometimes I just don’t want to interact with you
Or want you to know that I’m here
Sometimes
...I just want to watch you...
What does that say about me??
About you??
I could make my assumptions...but they’d only come from what I’ve gathered in these two worlds
And maybe that isn’t enough
For us to know what it all means, maybe we need to be seen & analyzed by someone or something in a world outside of both
Maybe...if you give me enough time...
I can get there
