Solid As a Rock

In your eyes, I’m a nobody Not much worth a look Left unnoticed in one corner Where no one saw me weep Do I look unappealing, I wonder Tried flashing a bright smile Under the blinding noon sky But still your eyes avoid mine And you look past way beyond Do I look blurry, I wonder Finally, I caught a glimpse When you tripped on my sore foot But your gaze seemed ablaze As if I was a lump on the road Do I look frail, I wonder Forgotten and uncared for I felt exhausted and weak Under the heat of the sun I rested Till the storm passed through the night Must I hold on, I wonder One thing though is certain I may be bruised and broken But the love I have for you Remains solid as a rock 5 April 2018
