You like information
And I
Am bored
By the constant
Need and
Expectation
That I dispense
Information -
That I educate
You.

I long to
Humanize
Myself --
To share
My experiences
But no one
Wants to hear
That.

It feels
Like I exist
Solely
To spout
Obvious truths,
Not to
Delve
Deeper.

No one
Wants
To look
Any closer,
To see
The heart,
To hear
The cries.

Instead they love
The work,
And the
Machines
Who do
The work,
Giving them
What
They long for
Without
Comment.

They just 'like' it
When we are
Objects
Selling
Products --
They 'like'
Stories
Of our lives
When we
Hate ourselves

And ignore
The bigger
Issues
Right before
Their eyes.
