Hidden Beauty

I sat at the food court today, 
l people watched as usual, 
I noticed people's faces, 
I noticed people's hair, 
I then actually came to the realization that I was consciously watching people.

I then became aware. 

I then became emotional. 

I then realized the beauty I was being exposed to,
I was watching the little things, 
I was looking at the older men playing cards, 
I was eying the families happily sharing a meal.

I find this a considerable beauty.
I teared up; I held back tears.
I think people should look more closely and realize the precious moments that are happening so close to them.
I think life should not be taken for granted.

I've really been enjoying your poem and the emotions and imagery were so vivid that i could easily picture them as beautiful illustration. I'm a commission-based manga/webtoon artist, and I'd love to help bring your story to life if you're ever interested. Feel free to reach out at gm@il : akiracomicart2@ or on inst@ akiraa_artly
