From Across the Room

It was me the whole time

By Amanda harrisonPublished 4 years ago 1 min read

From across the room, I can see the tiny sparkle in your eyes

The sparkle in your eyes that almost wants to ask why?



Why does it hurt so bad?

Why does it make me so mad?

Shouldn't I be glad?

Glad that I still have the sparkle in my eye!

From across the room, I can see you

See you like I see my own reflection in the mirror staring back at me



Staring back at me like, come have tea

The type of tea that will make you see!

See you as You in me!

Can you believe?



Could it be?

Me staring from across the room

Yes it's me, and I'm ready to be!

Be who I was meant to be

Just me! All while looking across the room

looking for someone or something

to realize it was all to find ME!

All while looking across the room!
