definition.
eLEANOR rIGBY: (n) not quite a proper noun, but still existing. she's the blurred forgotten face that represents the many many people we pass everyday. one of them wants to be president. and another one, she just got new shoes and is only out to show them off. and that guy on his phone, yeah, he's not really talking to anyone. BUT once upon a time, someone's disapproving eyes told him that it wasn't okay for him to be alone. SO, he picked up his phone and hurried along the sidewalk, pretending he has somewhere to go. and then theres you..
i dont expect to know your story yet, but i dont trust you to know it either...if you were to put yourself into that description, you'd know too much. only the observant bypass can affectively THINK they know who you are, make obscene inferences about your life and thoughts just by rubbing shoulders with you in a crowded city. we all know more than we say we do, we all care about more than ourselves, and we all do it for one reason and one reason only.
im assuming you know your reason. now, if i were passing you on the street, would i know it?
make me know it, make it run through you like blood. no matter what your taking in, let it out like carbon dioxide. i want you to prove me wrong. im so sick of thinking i know you all so well. but i don't blame myself. i blame you and everyone else. when you give me nothing to begin with, im forced to think i know everything and anything about you. show me who you are, and stop letting me (and everyone like me) take you for just another american idol reject, beauty school drop-out, Father McKenzie, or worst of all, eleanor herself.
