Things I Wanted To Say But Never Did

Well I can tell you my name,

And so they laughed along with him.

But later on, the king had died —

Somebody here asked me that once,

It was along time ago, and back then I didn’t know how to respond to that question.

Now I know that yes.

Sometimes I can be in a room full of people but I know non of them are here for me, I will be a part of the conversation yes. But they won’t really care if all of a sudden I will just say “well guys, it was nice see you tomorrow”.

They will just stay there, they will keep on with the conversation and maybe later they will even plan on meeting at someplace forgetting to invite me as well.

But it’s ok. I wouldn’t care, honestly sometimes I would even prefer it. Not knowing they met so I wouldn’t feel like I have to join them.

Sometimes I will sit and talk and they will hear, sometimes they will even listen, but it won’t be enough.

Not because of them, but because they will never understand what is it that I’m trying to express.

You need to speak to people in their own language,

And sometimes I just forget it and speak in my native language with people who don’t understand it.

But like Sting said once: “Modesty, propriety can lead to notoriety; You could end up as the only one; Gentleness, sobriety are rare in this society; At night a candle's brighter than the sun”
