You're a Parenthesis

You are only a punctuation.

You are only used to signify a word, a phrase, or a sentence.

You are only used to fill the gap.

You are only optional.

You are only one of a pair of marks.

You are only useful if you get along.

You are only used by choice, and not as a necessity.

You are only an option.

You are usually set aside.

You are usually ignored – unread.

You don’t matter like the subject.

You only matter when you are missed.

But yeah, you are still a part of the sentence, a part of the thought.

You still play your role.

You still serve your purpose

And – you are still there.

You surround words.

You make them special.

You seclude what’s yours.

Or at least that's your role.

You were the priority – for an expression.

You are the rule that is misunderstood.

You came first – only when you’re present.

You’re not the priority, however, when you’re not.

Yes, you are one of a pair of marks.

You are not only used to surround words, and make them special.

You are also used to express feelings – along with other punctuation. :-)

You are used for a feeling, - a feeling that would change once reversed. :-(

You’re a punctuation.

You are used.

You are disregarded.

You’re just a parenthesis.
