Sometimes
I look out into the city
And I feel so immensely small
I think about all the stories left
To be told
I think about all the unheard
Teardrops
All the shoulderless cries
I see a husband
Fighting with his wife
I envision a teenager crying in her loneliness
I see a girl
Sitting in the middle of her room
Amidst all the mess
But I also see cuddles before an open fire
I hear whispers
I hear laughter
I look out into the city and
Although my world
Is
MY ENTIRE WORLD
It just really makes me see
That it’s so very little
In the grand scheme of things
