Rain lightly hitting the window
slowly trickling down
a muddled reflection
my gigantic face
translucent against the trees
dark green
swaying in the wind
giving way
like dreams
in a storm of thought
trying desperately to stay awake
resting my head on my hand
trees swirling
I blink
shake my head
role my eyes
stretch my arms
stick my tongue out at the world
the trees don't show any emotion
the rain does not stop
and I stare out the window
I turn around
and look at all the people in the mall
I'm sitting on a bench
if I were to smile,
I bet no one would turn
no one would notice
no one would move
so many lives intertwined-
Walking past each other
without a thought of anyone elses' life
I could bump into some one.
They wouldn't think twice
I would.
They have been through
so many hardships and triumphants-
so have I
I don't know of anything
that they've been through
They don't know any of the
sadness I've seen
hurt I've felt
I know who I am and
they know who they are
but we don't know each other
they've been alive for years
but for one instant-for one second
I am a part of their life
I'm not changing their life
I don't even know their name
but they know it well-
they've been called it their entire life
they'll never know my name
and in that one second in time-
I feel like nothing
I feel like everything
I mean nothing
bumping into them couldn't chamge their life
I stand for everything
As an individual, I am unique
My head spins
my hand falls
I fall to one side and sleep
I feel sorry for the man who
doesn't think
doesn't act
doesn't even watch
watch the world
doesn't notice
doesn't appericiate
doesn't listen
but to the people who do
who do
truly understand the world,
they are truly happy.
Not many people really understand themselves
