changing

it's only a moment
it doesn't last long
someone smiles at me
someone says a kind word
and
my whole world
is changing
i feel that my wings
are ready to spread
to soar

it's only a moment
it doesn't last long
someone ignores me
does not say a word
and
my whole world
is changing
i don't feel my wings
just empty and lonely
just sore

and they
say
hey
grow up
will ya?

  1. You captured that vulnerability of felling the want, no the need for affirmation. Brilliant.

  2. Affirmation is so easy to give, so easy to withold, and makes such a big difference.
