I Am In Hiding!

It’s extremely hard for me

to keep myself private

from the rest of the world.

It’s also hard for me

to put myself out there

for everyone to see.

Why are you watching me?

You have 3 options:

you either stand out to be known,

blend in with the society,

or hide away.

Will you ever get to know the real me?

You are put here in this world

for a reason.

A reason that will take

a very long time.

A lifetime

to figure out

who you are

as an individual

a human being.

Will you ask me who I am?

And will you listen to the answer?

You are constantly

bombarded by

police officers, security guards, CIA/FBI,

the paparazzi, and news reporters

watching and capturing your every move.

And you decide to watch me.

Why are you watching me?

This will come to a breaking point

that all of this surveillance

will frustrate and overwhelm you.

Which leads me to ask a very important question:

WHY?

Why are you doing this?

Why is it that all of a sudden

every single one of us

dropped what we are doing

just to focus on a single person?

Why are you still here?

Don’t you have a life to live?

Why are you focusing on my life?

Can’t we just leave that person alone?

That person does not

want to be in the spotlight!

Yet you are forcing that person

To be in that spotlight!

You are doing that right now!

I don’t like this!

Do me a favor and just go away!

Leave me alone!

That person does not want her life

To be in public!

She wants her life

To be kept in private!

WHY ARE YOU STILL HERE?

My life is NOT important to you!

Please go away! Get out of here!

She wants to be in hiding.

I need to be in hiding.

She doesn’t want to be seen.

I don’t want to be seen.

She doesn’t want to be bothered.

Don’t bother me.

She wants to be alone.

I need to be alone.

She doesn’t want anyone to see her.

I DON’T WANT YOU TO SEE ME!

Her life isn’t important to everyone.

My life is not important to you!

She wants everyone to go away.

PLEASE GO AWAY! Let me be!

She wants to hide away from this world.

I need to hide away from this world.

She

I

Needs

NEED

To

TO

Be

BE

In

IN

Hiding!

HIDING!

DO HER A FAVOR AND LEAVE HER ALONE!

PLEASE!
