I Still See the Beauty

I can hardly hear and I don’t care to speak. The answers don’t match the questions I seek I feel like a misfit, sort of a freak, The day just dragged on, it felt like a week! I hear all the sounds from off of the street. Your mouth doesn’t move yet our minds still meet. A strong gust of wind nearly knocks me off my feet, I think to be safe, I shall just grab a seat. Cars fly by on their way to tomorrow. Gone are the tear shed from all of the sorrow. I never have been able to just follow. I think I’d rather buy, instead of borrow. This day is Monday but I can’t seem to adjust, I see with my heart yet still I don’t trust. It’s starting to rain and perhaps I shall rust, I put all in, Hope I don’t come up bust… Everything seems to slip through my fingers, Only a taste left behind, that still lingers. I see all that is and imagine what can be, It all is encompassed in the beauty I see…
