Lost in the
vast expanse of place and people
People gently and
violently dying
Craving,
longing, yearning for a touch, a smile
A sign of
recognition
Not aware of
the need but wanting it all the same
Cold, blank
stares everywhere
Mechanical
beings walk the streets
Heartless
empty eyes stare into space
Searching
for something they don’t know
Look into my
eyes
What do you
see?
More of you
or something else?

This poem is birthed out of a corner of my life, a strange unfamiliar, familiar place.
