Insignificant

Please understand that I am truly insignificant.  I am not important.  I do not matter.  I walk thru life leaving few footprints behind me.  I will walk into and out of your life, and within hours, you will never remember me. 

Please understand that I am truly insignificant.  People see me in a crowd and their eyes pass thru me.  I walk into a room of people, and no one turns as if the door did not open.  I will introduce myself, but tomorrow, you will never remember.

Please understand that I am truly insignificant.  I have no purpose.  I have no passion.  I have no magnetic qualities.  I am traitless, bland, genderless.  You will remember nothing about my picture.

Please understand that I am truly insignificant.  I am not happy with that.  I wish I could be more.  I wish I could leave my mark on this world, on society, on this culture, on you as a person.  I wish I would flood your thoughts.  I wish my image would become burned in your mind's eye.  Please understand that I often wish I was anything but truly insignificant.
