To Write “Meh” on LinkedIn

I wish I were just like you

You’re so darn cool

You always look like you’re in a good mood

You smell nice

Everyone REALLY likes you

You. I wish I were just like you.

You’re very pretty. What’s your name?

You’re very funny. Do you think I’m the same?

Last night I thought about you, how you fix your hair

How you make them stare

How you walk like you don’t even care

I look past your soul because I don’t want you to see mine

Man, you’re so special

I wish I were as strong as you

I even bought the same makeup-well, the knock off version because…

Wow, are you rich, too?

What will it take to be just like you?

I think I’m far too old to be somebody else. It’s a little too late. It’s also too late be jealous. It’s quite tiring. Like I’m running in the same hamster wheel for over two decades now realizing that I’m still trying to grow up and be normal. I’m still not sure what normal is. Quite frankly, I’m too tired to care. Yes, I really want to write, “meh” on my LinkedIn profile.
