Lonely acquaintance

Looking out the dirty old

window, a billion stories

unfold,

 

A car rushing by in the

rain, obsessed with

meeting a loved one..

 

An empty swing still

moving

with hints of innocent

childhood ...

 

The reflection of a

wrecked heart,

Judging itself harder than

anyone else,

 

Wrapped up in warm

sheets with a billion

hands to hold, yet

shivering..


The author's comments:

When we talk about our expectations of others, we try to see ourselves through others eyes, leading to us getting hurt most of the times. This poem talks about how it's okay sometimes to sit and talk about yourself, to see the world through your own eyes and let them see you for what you are.
