Nobody

I am not a "nobody"
I exist.
No matter if I was or was not "supposed to"
I'm here.
No matter how much you say to me that I'm actually someone else.
I'm somebody.
Sure, we're similar.
We're driven by the bonds to our friends and the pull of our heart - strings-
of those who are heart-less-
Not I.
I am not you.
I skateboard,
free as the crow flies I go,
I eat entirely too much ice cream
living on the edge of the station clock tower
time ticks on not forever
I'm me, and I'm angry,
You can never be.
I'll fight.
I'll wield a blade in ways you never would.
never will because I have the drive
I'm afraid
but not scared into kindness.
They're telling me I'm half,
another half of you.
That I'm your memories.
A pawn in a game.
No.
I'm a knight.
I won't stop fighting.
Please, believe in me.

When the flowers bloom, I'm gone.
I'm me, I swear.
Please remember me.
My friends. My hopes.
That blue stone in your pocket is mine.
We never did get to go to the beach.
