Am I unreal, so you pass by without a glance,
Or I'm just a shadow fading in the light?
Caught between whispers and the silence of the wind,
My existence floats like a dream untold.
Each breath I take feels like a borrowed moment,
Lost in a world that questions my place.
Am I unreal, so you dismiss my name?
Or I'm just a face blurred in your memories?
The stars hold secrets I cannot decipher,
Yet their brilliance mocks my dimmed reflection.
I reach for the skies, but they retreat farther,
Leaving me stranded in endless yearning.
Am I unreal, so you forget my voice?
Or I'm just a song lost in the echoes?
I hum melodies that break like fragile glass,
Scattered into fragments too faint to hold.
My heart, a vessel adrift in turbulent seas,
Seeks shores that may never appear.
Am I unreal, so you ignore my pain?
Or I'm just a wound hidden beneath the surface?
The weight of time carves lines upon my soul,
Yet no hands reach to soothe the ache.
Each step feels like an echo of a vanished past,
Fading footprints erased by shifting sands.
Am I unreal, so you deny my dreams?
Or I'm just a fleeting thought in your mind?
The visions I build crumble like fragile castles,
Swept away by waves of indifference.
Hope rises, only to wither in the shadows,
Leaving traces of promises unmet.
Am I unreal, so you overlook my tears?
Or I'm just a storm that vanishes too soon?
The rain that falls from my eyes carries stories,
Yet the earth refuses to absorb their depth.
Each droplet holds fragments of a muted voice,
Craving to be heard amidst the noise.
Am I unreal, so you abandon my love?
Or I'm just a flame extinguished by the wind?
The warmth I offer melts into cold despair,
Consumed by the frost of unspoken truths.
The tenderness I weave becomes unraveling threads,
Falling into the void of forgotten embraces.
Am I unreal, so you erase my laughter?
Or I'm just a fleeting echo of joy?
The moments of mirth dissolve like morning mist,
Fading before they touch the heart.
My smile, a mask worn to hide the void,
Seeks solace in a world that turns away.
Am I unreal, so you silence my voice?
Or I'm just a whisper drowned by the storm?
I scream into the void, but it answers with stillness,
My words swallowed by the abyss.
Each syllable fights for meaning,
Yet falls like petals scattered by the wind.
Am I unreal, so you deny my being?
Or I'm just a dream slipping through the cracks?
My reflection stares back with unanswered questions,
A puzzle incomplete and left unsolved.
In the mirror of your eyes, I search for myself,
Only to find shadows where I should be whole.
Am I unreal, so you turn from my light?
Or I'm just a candle lost in the night?
The flicker I offer seems too faint to see,
Yet it burns with a quiet, steady resolve.
If you'd only pause, you might find the warmth,
A spark waiting to ignite the frozen dark.
Am I unreal, so you doubt my worth?
Or I'm just a page torn from your story?
The chapters I write with trembling hands,
Speak truths you choose to leave unread.
Each word carries weight, though faintly heard,
A testament to a soul unseen, unheard.
Am I unreal, so you forget my fight?
Or I'm just a warrior lost in your blind eyes?
The battles I wage in silence and despair,
Echo in corridors you refuse to walk.
My scars, not trophies, but signs of survival,
Mark the path of a life unyielding.
Am I unreal, so you brush past my touch?
Or I'm just a breeze too subtle to feel?
The connection I crave lies beyond the stars,
But here on earth, it slips like sand.
If you'd stop and let the moment breathe,
Perhaps my essence would become real.
Am I unreal, so you leave me unseen?
Or I'm just a whisper in the noise of life?
I walk this path with questions unspoken,
Yet each step resounds with echoes of hope.
Perhaps in your gaze, I'll find my truth,
A moment where being unreal fades away.
