 Harry Sweeden. My life in verse.

Someone unknown



 



 



I never wanted fame nor adulation



never needed to be in the light



I only ever wanted to find a way forward



without the arguments… the inevitable fight.



So I tried to hide in the shadows



on the outside… just looking in



I wanted no part of someone else's lifestyle



I was just waiting for mine to begin.



Fame will not bring me happiness



adulation will not fill me with pride



I only know that the talons of light



will force me to surrender and hide.



So I need not my name in the spotlight



my face is my face to own



I will never be part of what so many search for



I would much rather be someone unknown!
