Attention seeking is faking
Only a few personalities are alluring to others
and even fewer are interested to hear
about someone else's trivial life
that has even less content than their owna
and nothing that you'd want to grab in
Attention seeking is based on lies
when you're not good enough as yourself
It's underestimating of the listeners to exaggerate,
multiply everything by ten
It only gets you condescending smiles,
pitying looks and reluctant presence
If there's nothing to tell in life without fairy tales
it would be smart to keep them to yourself
Loudness, shrieking laughter
all of it is just on the surface
for in no one's heart can you find
a shining presence without a concealed dimension
Don't believe in shining clauses

ReplyDeleteI'm not sure I understand this piece. It strangely makes me think of Facebook.
yeah I can see why you're thinking of FB. it's about a person on my class who really does everything she can to get attention, to be noticed. she's just... childish. and you even know that person...
