Selfish Poem by Airest G.

I'm just a little person in this world,
I feel like I'm never heard.
I feel like I'm never seen.
I feel like I'm nothing.

I feel, I feel, I feel,
maybe I need to stop thinking about me.
Maybe I need to think about other things.
Maybe I need new feelings.
Maybe life is more than what I see.
Maybe life is deeper than what I think.
Maybe it doesn't matter if I'm heard,
maybe it's not about my word.
Maybe it's about what I do
and about other people too.
GOD if I could be selfless
and not so self-important,
then I would be more at peace
and I wouldn't feel so empty.
