A tribute to the observer.

Although I’d likely consider myself shy and coy, 

Occasionally withdrawn from the crowd, 

There are many facets of an observer.

For one,

The ultimate observer can detect feigned emotion,

Watching others play make-believe may be one of the most disillusioning aspects of human nature,

As it completely detracts from the meaning of a human life. 
 
Even the emotions that are sham, 

The observer will bottle up and collect tears,

that are not theirs to subsist.

Many observers may receive the notion that they are too mature for their age,

But that is because we carry the emotions of a million lives and ages. 

The ultimate observer is 14,

17,

32,

47,

76,

81,

All at the same time.

  • I believe in art.

    though honorable and necessary,

    i fail to recognize the emotion and fervor within technology and maths.

    of course, it is possible one feels emotional and passionate for those pursuits,

    today i am sixteen,

    but in five days i turn seventeen

    i lie on the bridge between my childhood,

    and the promising future ahead of me.
