LOOK CLOSER

A little girl sat on a creaking swing.
Tears glistened on her cheeks.
As I stood there, all I saw were tears.
But if I looked closer, there in each drop was a deep craving for her mother's love.
I walked the street seeing a man.
He followed a boy home.
I only saw the steps of the boy get quicker.
But if I looked closer,I would've seen the hunger in the man and the fright of the boy.
maybe that boy would've still been here.
In the car I look out the window.
I see a woman's jewelry glimmer in the sunlight.
The woman talks on the phone.That's all I see.
If I looked closer,
I would've seen her press the reject buttons the man that SHOULD matter MOST calls.
I see her hide her wedding ring in the compartment under her seat.
She sends him a text saying she's busy.
But another lover comes up and gives her a kiss.
I would've seen how pitiful it was.
How woould someone know the things inside reflections.
