NPC;

ꜱʏʟᴠᴀ

Im always here to help
Always "here if you need me"
So you use and toss me like a snack
Simply because I'm the NPC

You can come to me to talk
And I'll always try my best,
But when the time comes,
You won't choose me on your quest

So I'll wait till you need me again,
And I won't talk till I'm spoken to,
I'll be waiting in my usual spot,
Till I somehow prove usefu to you.

I'm the Non Player Character
I'm just there in your life
But thats okay, cause if i had the chance
I would have shot me twice

    It is the last line that makes this poem a recognition of one's own faults and admission. It is a twist that is abrupt and turns the poem on its head. Very nicely done a fave

    Sylva, this hit me hard. That feeling of being valued only when you're needed comes through with painful honesty. Powerful write, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛
