Why am I here?

@demcmurphy

I look around the room.

There’s a large crowd of people.

They all have great potential.

Yet I’m put at their level.

Everyone’s paired up with someone.

In useful conversation.

Talking about their achievments.

About their motivation.

I’m sticking to this small corner of the room.

Trying to hide away.

Don’t engage in conversation.

Don’t talk about your day.

Don’t look them in the eye.

Because if you do.

They’ll outdo what you’ve already done.
