Pointing Fingers

Sitting by the window of a moving train..
Feeling alone
She ponders..
As to why it must be..

Pointing fingers..
How can one know another..
He explodes in a massive fury..
Insinuating negativity..
Demands..
Insults..
Behaving as the judge and jury..
Judgmental accusations..
Harsh poisonous words..

Pointing fingers..
She had become an open wound..
Hurting immensely..

She had become a target..
A bullseye caused by his delusions of her character..
She stares deeply out the window..
Train moving rapidly..
Beautiful scenic views of landscapes..
On a warm spring day..
took her breath away..
Splendid visions..

Pointing fingers..
She feels alone
Pain..
Misjudged by another..
A victim of his delusions..
All..
While embracing magnificent scenic views ..
A stunning picture perfect scenery..
She melts into the moment..
She delves into the magnificence..
Captivated..
Becoming..
Being..
Suddenly ..
Only that moment in time existed..
There was nothing else..

Pointing fingers had vanished..
Melted away..
No longer existed..

Now she sits by the window of a moving train..
A warm lovely smile..
Glowing beautifully..

Natural beauty does indeed dominate..
