if i was a book

if someone picked up the book of my life

they'd be sorely disappointed

my cover may seem nice. it's shiny and got some silver on the edges. but i'm not worn. and my spine isn't cracked.

they wouldn't get a grand adventure

or a sparkling romance

they'd get a background character. i'm a background character in everyone's story. even my own.

itd be a sad book with a bad plot and nothing very happy ever happens and if it does, it doesn't stay.

i don't blame them for not wanting to read my book

i don't think i'd want to either.
