Show Time

By Amber Jones

The thing about this little boy is

he goes unnoticed unless he shows his trophy

he seeks the attention he so freely gives. It’s almost like

the real him is invisible

he goes unnoticed unless he shows his trophy

lost in goals, competition, and achievements

but performance is a facade

he seeks the attention he so freely gives, it’s almost

like by convincing others, he’ll convince himself too

but the truth of the matter is

the real him isn't invisible, the darkness is still there

the flaws and aches are still alive

and there’s no hiding that

Author Notes: Just a Trimeric for thought, they’re kind of an odd form of poetry in my opinion😆
