reflections

We look at mirrors he says

We watch our own expressions

Play in the reflections of their eyes

Measure our feeling in anothers reciprocation

Desperation in the realization

You feel pain well under your skin,

You experience ache and temptation

Differently

You think

Pensively

You introspect conceding

The distance between your being and

The things you see playing on the face in front of you

Maybe

The same

No,

You blame them,

You blame everything

on yourself.

You just want the one moment when

Humanity can exist in cohesion

And you can realize yourself

And everyone will see it.

And for once you will see them.

The same.
