LOOK CLOSER
Hidden truth,
Is that what we need to uncover?
Is that something important?
So many questions
Never seem to be answered
Why?
Why even ask why?
There’s already enough questions.
This is stupid.
This needs to reset.
What do we do?
My oh my,
This beautiful scene:
The warm trees
The pinecones
Hanging
Waiting to be
Somewhere.
Where is this somewhere?
A street of greatness?
A place to belong?
Where is this destination?
A street of comfort?
A place to hope?
My oh my,
Look at you.
The way you are
Placed in the ground
Staying.
You’ve been there
Showing the way
Where is this way?
A path of beauty?
A route to admire?
Where is this direction?
A path of success?
A route to achieve?
What Beauty,
This sight of
Home.
A neighborhood
Full of warm
Places to be.
Always wanting company.
When are you finished?
Once people are satisfied?
Once you are full?
When will you stop?
Once you are abandoned?
Once folk can’t reach you?
Are you going to succeed?
What Beauty,
The perfect spot
To tell your directions
Standing proud
At your work
You think that
Your direction is perfect.
When will you realize?
Once you see your faults?
Once you see the end in yourself?
When will you understand?
Once you finally look around?
Once the direction is unused?
You don’t even see yourself.
Why?
This scene of
Trees without your leaves.
The mountains
Barely visible
What a scene
Of horrible greenery.
Why are you like this?
Only one evergreen
Only ever lifeless.
Why are you silent?
Only beautiful in summer
Only ever pausing
For what?
To leave us without joy?
Without awe of you
To adore?
Why?
This lonely area
Colorless..
Nothing special
About your view
What a scene
Of horrible placement
Why don’t you change?
Only one direction
Only ever colorless
Why don’t you move?
Only stuck in your place
Only ever suffering
For what?
To endure the staring?
To prove something
Of yourself?
So majestic,
The sight of
Cold mountains
Tan hills
Striking a pose
Just for us to admire
Your beauty.
What is your purpose?
Just to stand there?
Just showing off?
What is your point?
Just to keep your gaze?
Just showing strength?
Is that all you do?
So majestic,
The way you stand out
Taking the opportunity
Of showing your
Bold features.
You’re so grateful
For your placement
What are your thoughts?
Just to bask in your glory?
Just praising yourself?
What are your ideas?
Just to show yourself?
Just being genuine?
Is there more to uncover?
Unknown,
This destination
Always seen
But never shown fully
You try to show your beauty
But to no avail.
All we see is your harsh environment.
How do we see you?
Do we need to look closer?
We just hope you’re good enough?
How do we understand?
We need to hear you?
We just listen for something?
Will you ever speak your mind?
Unknown,
Your placement
Is perfect
But we never see
Your true design.
You show everyone
All of yourself
How are we so ignorant?
We ignore you?
We try to look away?
Why are we so stupid?
We don’t even care?
We look past your strength?
Why do we not see your authenticity?
