Ever felt like someone only saw the surface of who you are, missing the deeper truths that make you whole? This poem speaks to the frustration of being overlooked, of giving so much while someone only takes what’s visible. It’s about longing for someone who truly sees you, beyond the surface and into the depths. You came in for the Star Wars lore, Watching me dress up, a rebel to adore. I danced and I sang, you shouted, "Encore!" But you never looked deeper, just stayed at the shore. I saw it all on your face, every time I showed grace, But you missed the iceberg, the hidden space. You measured my worth by what I could give, As if love’s a transaction, the way we all live. You didn’t see the storms I’ve braved, The oceans I’ve crossed, the nights I’ve saved. I know we were never meant to be, But why, oh why, did you do that to me? Why did I beg, why did I plead, When I knew the lines, the script, the greed? In a play of lies, where truth is rare, I hoped for more, but you did...
Why the ambiguous name? Well, though to people around me, I seem like an extroverted person but when it comes to sharing some stuff, I am kind of awkward but I have amazing stories to share. I mostly express myself through "elegy" form of poetry writing and the themes are usually about self-reflection, friendships, loss, love and depressive phase.
