ATTENTION SEEKERS

The attention seekers,
They have very low self esteem,
They feel empty,
But feel they can be filled.
With the accreditation given by people and approval,
Bringing people down to increase their esteem,
Dependent they are on people’s comment.
Scared of condemnation they are,
But in darkness they cry for perfection,
Crying for redemption,
Begging for salvation.
But the more they cry the farther liberation,
So looking somewhere else for satisfaction,
We look for the flaws in others.
Not knowing their pain,
But feeding on their pain for redemption,
Not knowing their story but judging,
Then we make ourselves feel better,
Because of the flaws of others,
And approval from fake people.
Then when you are alone,
You realize it’s just you with no personality.

Thanks for taking time to read through
