In the middle i stay 
Never leaving 
Yet never coming 
Why?  
 
In time you see 
What i am 
Can you see it?  
In the corner 
 
That sparke 
That breath 
That look 
Your smile 
 
I can see it 
Can you?  
It takes time to see 
What i can only dream 
 
Lifeless i sit 
Colourless i am 
Perfection always my cue 
Make it right, do it now 
 
Why can't i make you see 
Why don't you know 
I only try 
I only mimic them 
 
Its not real 
I am a fake 
To good to be true 
Nothing 
 
In darkness i die 
Not to be heard of again 
Gone 
Forever. Now leave 
 
You can't see 
You don't know 
No sparkle 
No look 
 
Waste of time
